CETCO's 200R GCLArlington Heights, IL (23 July 2008) – CETCO announces the introduction of a new GCL product, Bentomat® 200R, which combines the benefits of CETCO’s needle-punched GCLs with the economical pricing of the Claymax® GCLs.

Design engineers no longer have to sacrifice all the performance benefits of reinforced GCLs in cost sensitive applications. This product is designed to meet the hydraulic performance properties of Claymax GCLs, but with improvements in internal shear strength, peel strength, and durability.

Bentomat 200R is manufactured with a 3.5 ounce per square yard non-woven polypropylene cap fabric which is needle-punched into a 3.2 ounce per square yard woven polypropylene base. The product contains 0.75 pounds of bentonite per square foot.

For a limited time CETCO will be offering this new product at the same price as the Claymax 200R. The product is available from both CETCO’s Cartersville Georgia and Lovell Wyoming manufacturing plants.CETCO is a global supplier of products and technologies for many construction and environmental applications, including green roof systems, construction waterproofing, environmental liners, pollution remediation, vapor intrusion systems, and water conservation.
