White surfaced geomembranes

GSE^® White is a co-extruded, high density (HDPE) or linear low density (LLDPE) polyethylene geomembrane with a UV resistant and light reflective surface layer. The white layer is fully integrated with the primary black geomembrane layer; all of the excellent properties of GSE geomembranes are not altered.
