Eurobent EB4500 is a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) containing bentonite between geotextile layers. The bentonite swells when hydrated to form a low-permeability barrier for engineered dams, canals and waste-containment systems. Supplied in 5.1 m x 40 m rolls for installation beneath a specified cover layer.

How we install
We install Eurobent EB4500 bentonite GCLs. Accept a firm, smooth subgrade and deploy the GCL in the correct orientation. Form the specified panel overlaps and apply supplementary bentonite where required. Complete penetrations and repairs, then place the protective cover without trafficking directly on the exposed GCL.
