AGRU America offers three competitive closure products, each with its unique advantages to help solve even the toughest waste containment challenges. From traditional closure systems to AGRU’s Integrated Drainage System (IDS) and ClosureTurf®, AGRU America’s solutions are compliant with the EPA’s Subtitle D-related requirements for Impoundment and Landfill Closure Systems. Additionally, AGRU offers state-of-the-art solutions regarding erosion control.

ClosureTurf®, a Watershed Geo patented product, is a three-component system comprising a structured geomembrane, an engineered turf, and a specialized sand infill. The structured geomembrane comprises either AGRU’s SUPER GRIPNET® or MICROSPIKE® geomembrane. This final cover system is EPA Subtitle-D compliant and installs more than 50% faster than traditional closure systems. It also eliminates the need for large quantities of soil and related equipment usage, dramatically improving site safety and decreasing its carbon footprint by almost 80%. Reduced soil and equipment usage also leads to lower construction costs.

Tough and flexible, HDPE and LLDPE AGRU Smooth Liner is the material of choice for containment applications. The chemically resistant material provides consistent thickness and delivers optimum weld speed and weld quality in the field. All AGRU Smooth Liner material is rolled on 23’ wide plastic cores to ensure ease of installation, eliminating the problem of collapsed cores.

AGRU’s Black & White geomembranes offer the advantages of both a light reflective white surface and a black damage detection layer. The liner’s ultraviolet (UV) resistant white surface reflects light, which minimizes associated heat absorption by as much as 50%, while the black HDPE lining geomembranes can reach temperatures of 160°F (71°C) or more.

Sure-Grip is a concrete protective liner in production for over 30 years. In that time, Sure-Grip has been installed in thousands of projects worldwide as a long-term alternative to spray-applied concrete protection products. Sure-Grip is a cost-effective means of incorporating reliable waterproofing and effective protection against concrete corrosion.

Ultra Grip is an innovative concrete protective liner featuring a revolutionary redesign of the 13 mm Sure-Grip anchor to provide unparalleled backpressure resistance. Ultra Grip is a cost-effective means of incorporating reliable waterproofing and effective protection against concrete corrosion under high backpressure conditions.

A reinforced needle-punched geosynthetic clay liner that comprises a uniform layer of granular bentonite that is encapsulated between a woven and a nonwoven geotextile, or between two nonwoven geotextiles. These products are intended for moderate to steep slopes and moderate- to high-load applications, where increased internal shear strength is required.

AGRU Large Diameter Pipes are available in sizes up to OD 3260 mm (128.35 in) and meet the requirements of both PE 100-RC and PE 4710 for high volume flow applications. AGRU’s large diameter pipes offer better long-term hydraulic properties, reducing operational costs of the piping system. Other benefits include a high resistance to corrosion, wear and tear, and UV radiation. AGRU’s large diameter pipes are relatively lightweight, enabling fast and efficient installation both on- and offshore.

High-density polyethylene pipe fittings are manufactured from the newest generation of PPI and NSF materials. These pipe fittings meet a range of project requirements including ASTM D3261, ASTM D2513, NSF 61, and AWWA C901 and C906.

Comes in two resin types, HDPE and LLDPE, to support projects where drainage and high interface friction, as well as cost savings, are critical. Examples include landfill caps, landfill slopes, and mining reclamation projects. Super Gripnet® is a structured geomembranes that is manufactured by a continuous horizontal flat die extrusion into profile rollers, which give the product the final structured surface with drainage studs and spikes that are an integral part of the liner.

As the only HDPE and LLDPE geomembrane featuring consistent texture and friction angle values, MicroSpike is the material of choice in containment applications where slope stability is critical. AGRU’s patented manufacturing process, flat die-cast extrusion, allows the company to produce the most consistent smooth or textured geomembranes.

A 100% polypropylene nonwoven geotextile that lowers initial project costs by reducing the amount of base material needed. This needle-punched staple fiber geotextile membrane is ideal for environmental and civil engineering applications including cushioning, separation, stabilization, and filtration. Extends the life of a project by protecting other critical materials from puncture, migration, or degradation.
