30 mil PVC under tank liner

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is typically a non-reinforced, cost effective membrane that provides many advantages for the user.  For a non-reinforced material, PVC has high puncture strength and excellent abrasion resistance.  In buried applications, PVC can provide a service life for over 20 years.  In addition, PVC is resistant to a large number of industrial chemicals.  PVC allows for an easy installation due to the availability of large factory fabricated panels and diverse field seaming capabilities which include chemical, hot wedge, and hot air processes.  In addition to standard grade, PVC is available in fish-grade, reinforced and potable water formulations.
