Ternberg Construction Waste Landfill, Austria

Safe Landfill with AGRU HighGrip® HDPE Geomembranes

The Ternberg construction waste landfill in Upper Austria relies on high-quality plastic geomembranes from AGRU for its lining. The landfill is operated by Bernegger GmbH, which also serves as the specialized installer; the company has extensive experience in landfill construction and environmental technology. The installation work is carried out in accordance with the requirements of ÖNORM S 2078.

 

A 2.5 mm-thick textured HDPE geomembrane from AGRU is being used to line the landfill. The geomembranes comply with the requirements of ÖNORM S 2073 and thus meet the high quality and safety standards for landfill construction in Austria.

Slope areas often pose a particular challenge in landfill projects, as they place high demands on the shear strength between the individual system components. For these demanding conditions, textured AGRU HDPE geomembranes with the proven HighGrip® texture are used. The specially developed surface texture increases friction within the geomembrane system and enables secure installation even on steep slopes.

In addition to their excellent mechanical strength, AGRU HDPE geomembranes offer high chemical resistance and long-term reliability. As a result, they play a key role in protecting soil and groundwater and ensure the sustainable operation of the landfill for many decades.

With the successful implementation of this project, Bernegger once again demonstrates its expertise as a landfill operator and certified specialist contractor. At the same time, the project illustrates how high-quality geosynthetics and professional installation contribute to permanently safe and code-compliant sealing solutions.
