ffP, fPP-R and TPO Geomembrane

fPP-R Geomembrane is a polypropylene/rubber-based membrane. Our standard product is reinforced with a scrim inserted between the top and bottom plies but it is also available in a non-reinforced panel. Flexible and heat-weldable, fPP-R Geomembrane is perfect for a variety of exposed and subsurface applications, including:
- Agricultural Pits and Ponds
- Aquaculture Applications
- Canals
- Evaporation Ponds
- Exposed Covers and Caps
- Floating Covers
- Golf Course Water Features
- Mining Applications
- Water Conservation Applications
- Water Reservoirs
Durability
Designed with exceptional tensile strength and excellent chemical and environmental stress-cracking resistance, fPP-R Geomembrane protects against punctures and remains unaffected by UV, ozone and soil bacteria. In addition, heat-welded seams mean fPP-R Geomembrane can be installed in relatively low ambient temperatures and ensures long lasting seams.
Field Installation
Approved applicators can have pre-fabricated, large, custom sized panels delivered to your project location, reducing installation cost.
Potable and Environmentally Friendly
Firestone fPP-R is plasticizer and chlorine free. A certificate of NSF water purity is available if requested with placement of material order.
Accessories
Our fPP-R Geomembrane system is complimented by a full line of accessories including Firestone fPP-R Flashing and Firestone fPP-R Welding Rod, making Firestone Specialty Products a convenient, one–stop source of materials for any commercial water feature or critical containment application.
Thermoplastic
Firestone’s thermoplastic geomembranes, fPP, fPP-R and TPO are polypropylene/rubber-based membranes.
Our standard products are reinforced with a scrim inserted between the top and bottom plies and our flexible polypropylene (fPP) is also available in a non-reinforced panel. Flexible and heat-weldable, Firestone thermoplastic geomembranes are perfect for a variety of exposed and subsurface applications, including:
- Agricultural Pits and Ponds
- Aquaculture Applications
- Canals
- Evaporation Ponds
- Exposed Covers and Caps
- Floating Covers
- Golf Course Water Features
- Mining Applications
- Water Conservation Applications
- Water Reservoirs
