Core Properties of EVA Geomembrane
EVA geomembrane maintains elongation and shape even at low temperatures, ensuring reliable performance on complex ground surfaces.
EVA liner absorbs strong dynamic impact energy, making it suitable for heavy machinery loads and pressure resistance.
With balanced static and dynamic puncture strength, EVA geomembrane provides durable protection against punctures and mechanical damage.
EVA geomembrane resists acids, alkalis, and certain organic solvents, ensuring long-term chemical durability.
Enhanced with antioxidants, EVA geomembrane offers superior aging resistance and UV stability for outdoor applications.
Performs reliably between -70°C and 80°C, with better performance than PVC and HDPE liners under extreme conditions.
Made without halogens or heavy metal additives, EVA geomembrane is safe, recyclable, and environmentally friendly.
Get to Know EVA Geomembrane
EVA geomembrane is a waterproof liner made from ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) material. It combines high flexibility, elasticity, and durability, making it ideal for lining projects.
EVA geomembrane is produced from EVA resin blended with stabilizers and anti-aging additives. This unique formulation gives EVA liners excellent weather, chemical, and UV resistance.
EVA geomembranes are commonly manufactured in thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm. The choice of thickness depends on project design, required durability, and site conditions.
EVA geomembrane is widely used in reservoirs, fish ponds, mining projects, waste landfills, and tunnels. The EVA liner adapts well to uneven ground, ensuring reliable long-term protection.
With proper installation and protection, EVA geomembranes can last 15–25 years. Their resistance to UV, chemicals, and extreme temperatures ensures long-term performance.
Surface Types & Color Options of EVA Geomembrane
Surface Type:
Smooth EVA geomembrane – Standard choice for tunnels, basements, and subway waterproofing. Smooth surfaces ensure easy welding and reliable anti-seepage performance.
Color Options:
White EVA geomembrane – Improves visibility inside tunnels and subways, commonly used in underground waterproofing projects.
Gray EVA geomembrane – Popular for basements, foundations, and roof waterproofing.
Black EVA geomembrane – General-purpose waterproof liner for reservoirs and anti-seepage works.

EVA Geomembrane Installation&Welding;
Welding Methods
Hot Air Welding: EVA geomembranes are highly flexible, making them suitable for hot air welding. This ensures smooth seams in applications like tunnels, reservoirs, and basements.
High-Frequency Welding: Especially effective for thin EVA liners (0.5–1.5 mm), providing strong seam bonding with minimal material deformation.
Overlap Width: Typically 75–100 mm, smaller than HDPE, since EVA membranes offer excellent flexibility and conform easily to complex structures.
Quality Control Procedures (CQA)
Trial Welds: Conducted at the start of each workday to confirm correct temperature and pressure for EVA material.
Seam Mapping: Each welded seam is logged and traced for inspection, especially in waterproofing projects like underground tunnels or basements.
Records: Installation logs should include welding temperature, overlap width, and operator details.
Testing Methods
Non-Destructive Tests (NDT):
Air Channel Test: Applied to double-track hot air seams.
Vacuum Box Test: Ensures no leakage in critical waterproofing areas.
Destructive Tests (DT):
Peel & Shear Tests: Carried out on EVA weld samples every 150–300 m² to meet ASTM D6392 requirements.
Compared to HDPE liners, EVA geomembranes are easier to weld, adapt better to irregular foundations, and provide superior flexibility, making them ideal for tunnels, basements, and complex waterproofing projects.

Basics of Wholesale EVA Geomembrane
Please include project type (pond, landfill, mining, reservoir), required thickness, surface (smooth / textured), roll size preference, and delivery terms (FOB/CIF + port).
Yes, free EVA geomembrane sheet samples are available for evaluation prior to bulk purchase.
Typical lead time is 15–25 days for production, plus shipping schedule depending on destination port.
The standard roll width for export is 5.8 m, which is optimized for container loading. Longer widths such as 7–8 m are also available, depending on actual container loading conditions. Roll length usually ranges from 50–150 m, adjusted by thickness. Custom prefabricated panels can be supplied if required.
The weight of an EVA geomembrane liner is calculated as:
Weight (g/m²) = Thickness (mm) × Density (g/cm³) × 1000
For EVA geomembrane with density 0.92–0.96 g/cm³ (per ASTM D792):
A 1.0 mm EVA liner weighs about 920–960 g/m²
A 1.5 mm EVA liner weighs about 1380–1440 g/m²
A 2.0 mm EVA liner weighs about 1840–1920 g/m²
Capacity is calculated based on 40HQ ≈ 25 tons loading weight. The exact roll count depends on thickness and roll width; we calculate by the liner weight per m² and container weight limit.
The recommended minimum order is 5000 m². Since geomembrane is bulky and heavy, we suggest at least one 20GP container for efficient shipping. We can also assist in consolidating with other cargo if needed.
We are a China geomembrane manufacturer, and shipments can be arranged from any major Chinese port such as Qingdao, Shanghai, or Ningbo.
