HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) is considered the best liner for larger ponds because of its exceptional strength, durability, resistance to chemicals and UV radiation, making it highly capable of withstanding the increased water pressure and environmental factors associated with large bodies of water, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable pond liner; essentially, it offers a great balance of strength, flexibility, and longevity, making it ideal for large-scale pond applications.
Key reasons why HDPE is preferred for large ponds:
High Tensile Strength:
HDPE has a high density and is very resistant to tears and punctures, which is crucial for large ponds where water pressure can be significant.
Chemical Resistance:
HDPE is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, making it suitable for ponds with potentially contaminated water.
UV Stability:
HDPE is formulated with UV stabilizers to prevent degradation from sunlight exposure, ensuring a long lifespan outdoors.
Weldable:
HDPE sheets are welded together seamlessly, creating a watertight seal and allowing for custom-sized liners for large ponds. HDPE liners are deployed and seamed in place so the lining conforms to the slope and shape of any pond design. Properly installed liner will never be in view even during periods of drought.
Cost-Effective:
Compared to other high-performance liner materials, HDPE is often considered a cost-effective option for large ponds.

Quality Lining Co., Inc. has been in business and has been owned by Fred Gunter for the past 27 years. We have installed a full range of linings over these years which include every type of lining on the market. We can provide expertise and detailed information to answer any question you may have regarding various lining options and advise you on the option best suited to your specific project. We have installed linings for every type of project and are able to satisfy a wide range of technical requirements with regards to testing, documentation, and safety protocols. Over the years we have worked in every type of environment, many of which were extremely demanding and literally unlike any other project before or after. Projects such as shop fabricating and installing a floating cover in a full 52' X 69' full closed tank at Turkey Point Nuclear Plant in Homestead, Florida. Repair of Mississippi Wastewater Authority hurricane damaged 1,500' long baffle curtain. The curtain had to be repaired in place (we were the only company that would even place a bid of the project). We developed a process that allowed us to lift the curtain above the water and repair the section and then move along the curtain to inspect and repair any damage. Have installed liners in a significant number of 11,000 CF process tanks for a company that produces various acids. Installed the largest drop-in liners 8,500 CF for a space launch vehicle assembly plant. Residential, commercial, and municipal pond linings have been installed in every possible configuration.
We offer honest pricing and never low ball an estimate to then rationalize various change orders to inflate the price after the project is underway and our client has committed. Unfortunately that is more common in the industry than is ideal. We would rather pass on a project than do anything that would result in a dissatisfied customer.
We welcome your request for quotation and will be pleased to entertain any questions and discussion regarding your project.

XR-5 liners are a specific type of geomembrane used in secondary containment applications to provide robust and reliable protection against the seepage and leakage of hazardous liquids, chemicals, and other materials. XR-5 liners are made from a reinforced fabric material coated with a polymer alloy, typically consisting of a combination of ethylene and propylene, providing excellent chemical resistance and impermeability. These liners are highly durable and can withstand harsh environmental conditions, including UV exposure, extreme temperatures, and mechanical stress.
In secondary containment, XR-5 liners are installed as a barrier between the hazardous substances and the surrounding environment. They are commonly used in a variety of industries, including oil and gas, mining, wastewater treatment, and chemical manufacturing. XR-5 liners are employed in various containment structures, such as chemical storage tanks, containment ponds, and lagoons.
Their superior resistance to punctures, tears, and chemical degradation ensures that even if a primary containment vessel fails or leaks, the XR-5 liner acts as an additional safeguard, preventing the hazardous materials from escaping and potentially causing harm to the ecosystem. The reinforced fabric in XR-5 liners provides added strength and stability, making them suitable for use in containment areas with irregular shapes and varying topographies.
Overall, XR-5 liners play a crucial role in secondary containment by minimizing the environmental impact of potential leaks and spills, protecting groundwater and soil from contamination, and complying with regulatory requirements for environmental safety. Their versatility and durability make them a preferred choice for industries that deal with hazardous substances and necessitate a reliable secondary containment solution.

XR-5 Geomembrane Applications
XR-5 Geomembranes are durable and engineered for the toughest applications and environments that require high-strength membranes, including:
Floating covers: Floating covers manufactured from geomembranes are a popular solution to odor containment and an integral component of low-rate anaerobic digestion systems.
Leachate ponds: A superior material for UV-exposed leachate collection pond lining, XR-5 Geomembranes provide long-term containment assurance with minimal maintenance.
Secondary containment: Reinforced flexible geomembrane liners are a better option for secondary containment of spills because unlike concrete, these liners don’t leak, are less expensive, and don’t require costly subgrade consideration and amendment.
Process wastewater: XR-5 Geomembranes have a range of chemical resistance and physical properties, making them the ideal material for the wastewater treatment process.
Floating baffles: Floating baffles are used in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants to improve water quality. XR-5 Geomembranes are used for the principal construction material in floating diversion baffles.
Tank floors: A type of secondary containment, geomembranes are placed under the floors of bulk storage tanks, functioning as a protective barrier—between the tank and the fluid—that contains leakage and allows enhanced monitoring.
Oil booms: XR® Geomembranes is one of the world’s largest suppliers of reinforced membranes for long-term oil boom use. Wastewater ponds: Low thermal expansion and contracting properties, along with toughness derived from the base fabric, allow the owner to leave the liner exposed.
