About the company
Axter manufactures and sells waterproofing systems for roofing, as well as for Public Works, Civil Engineering and Mining. In this congress we present our COLETANCHE® Bituminous Geomembranes, 5,10 m wide, which are composed of a nonwoven geotextile impregnated in an elastomeric bitumen. COLETANCHE ® offers a very strong mechanical resistance against tear and puncturing that eliminates the need of an external protection geotextile, minimizes the requirements of sub-base preparation for deployment, and can remain exposed to the action of extreme weather conditions and UV radiation without any additional protection. Its properties and ease of deployment make COLETANCHE ® an excellent option for the waterproofing of evaporation ponds to produce lithium from salar brines.
