1mm HDPE sheet, accompanied with 0.5mm, 0.75mm and 1.5mm and 3mm HDPE geomembrane liner produced by BPM is mainly used in the lining of fish ponds and shrimp ponds in the aquaculture industry.
1. What Is 1mm HDPE Sheet?
The 1mm HDPE sheet, also referred to as 1mm HDPE liner, is a specially engineered product made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). HDPE is chosen for its exceptional resistance to chemicals and UV radiation, making it a suitable material for various applications.
The 1mm HDPE sheet is widely used as a type of HDPE geomembrane liner. Geomembrane liners are continuous sheets of HDPE that are typically 7 meters wide and available in different thicknesses, including 1mm, 1.5mm, and 2mm.
HDPE geomembrane sheet serve as impermeable barriers, providing containment and preventing the leakage of liquids or gases. The 1mm HDPE sheet, with its moderate thickness, offers a balance between durability and flexibility. It is commonly used in applications such as lining ponds, landfills, canals, and reservoirs, as well as in civil engineering projects and environmental protection measures.
The 1mm HDPE sheet’s chemical resistance ensures that it can withstand exposure to various substances without degradation or leakage, while its UV resistance helps it withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without deteriorating. These qualities make it a reliable choice for projects requiring long-term durability and environmental protection.
The 1mm HDPE sheet, or 1mm HDPE liner, is a commonly used type of HDPE geomembrane liner. Its construction from high-density polyethylene provides excellent chemical resistance and UV protection, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require containment and environmental protection.
2. Why Choose BPM 1mm HDPE Sheet for Shrimp Pond Project in Ecuador
When considering the selection of a geomembrane liner for their shrimp pond project in Ecuador, the owner of GA company came across BPM’s products on our official website in November 2021. Seeking reliable suppliers from China, the client reached out to us for information regarding our geomembrane pond liner products. Our experienced technical team engaged in discussions with the client to understand the specific requirements of their project.
The client expressed the need for a 1mm HDPE sheet to serve as an impermeable lining system for their shrimp farming industry. In response, our sales manager provided detailed information about our production processes, testing procedures, and the quality of our 100% virgin HDPE geomembrane.

4. How To Install 1mm HDPE Sheet Ecuador for Shrimp Pond Project?
To install the 1mm HDPE sheet for a shrimp pond project in Ecuador, the following steps should be followed:
- Obtain the qualified acceptance certificate for the civil engineering before laying the geomembrane pond liner. This ensures that the construction site meets the necessary standards.
- Accurately measure the dimensions of the area where the 1mm HDPE sheet will be installed. Cut the geomembrane sheet accordingly, numbering each piece and recording the details on a special form. Avoid cutting solely based on the dimensions shown in the figure.
- During the installation, aim to minimize the number of welds while maintaining quality and saving raw materials. Fewer welds reduce the risk of potential leaks and ensure a more efficient installation process.
- The overlap width of the seams between the 1mm HDPE liner should generally be no less than 10cm. Arrange the welding seams parallel to the large slope, following the direction of the slope.
- In areas with deformed corners, keep the length of the joints as short as possible. Unless there are specific requirements, avoid placing welds within 1.5 meters from the top slope or stress concentration areas on slopes with a slope greater than 1:6.
- When laying the geomembrane pond liner, take care to avoid artificial wrinkles. In low-temperature conditions, tighten and flatten the liner as much as possible to ensure a smooth and even surface.
- 7Once the geomembrane sheet is laid, minimize walking and the movement of tools on its surface. Avoid placing any objects that could potentially damage the impermeable membrane. This precaution helps maintain the integrity and longevity of the liner.
By following these installation guidelines, the 1mm HDPE sheet installation can be properly finished for the shrimp pond project in Ecuador, ensuring a reliable and effective containment system for the farming industry.
5. What Are Benefits fo 1mm HDPE Sheet for Shrimp Pond Project?
The 1mm HDPE sheet offers significant advantages for shrimp pond projects. Its impermeability, water-saving capabilities, ease of maintenance, and positive impact on the breeding cycle contribute to improved productivity, reduced costs, and a healthier shrimp farming environment. The use of 1mm HDPE sheet in a shrimp pond project offers several benefits:
5.1 Excellent Impermeability
The 1mm HDPE sheet exhibits exceptional impermeability, preventing water seepage and leakage. This feature helps to save water and reduces the costs associated with water usage. It also minimizes the time required for water quality control, as the liner maintains the desired water conditions more effectively.
5.2 Oxygen Content Maintenance
The HDPE liner helps maintain the oxygen content in the shrimp pond, ensuring a suitable environment for the shrimp. By reducing the oxygen loss, the liner supports healthier shrimp growth and reduces the need for additional oxygenation systems. This results in lower maintenance costs and improved overall system stability.
5.3 Easy Pond Cleaning
The smooth surface of the 1mm HDPE sheet makes it easy to clean the shrimp pond. The liner prevents the accumulation of waste and sediments, facilitating regular cleaning and maintenance. This reduces the risk of disease hazards, as clean ponds create a healthier environment for the shrimp.
5.3 Increased Breeding Cycle
The use of a 1mm HDPE liner can contribute to an improved breeding cycle for shrimp. The liner helps regulate water temperature and reduces temperature fluctuations, creating a more stable environment conducive to shrimp growth and reproduction. This can lead to increased productivity and efficiency in the breeding process.
