CC Hydro

Introduction to CC Hydro

CC Hydro™ is the world’s first all-in-one armoured impermeable liner for a wide range of containment applications, such as bund lining, lagoon lining, tank wall remediation and tank base lining. CC Hydro™ removes the need for protective top cover, dramatically reducing installation times and simplifying logistics.

CC Hydro™ (CCH) combines the concrete filled geotextile technology of Concrete Canvas® with a highly impermeable, chemically resistant geomembrane liner. The liner incorporates a hi-visibility welding strip which allows joints to be thermally welded with a double-track or triple-track air channel for on-site testing. The product was specifically developed for applications within the Petrochemical and Oil & Gas industries.

CCH is available in 6mm and 8mm thicknesses: CCHT1™ and CCHT2™ respectively.

All-In-One Solution

CC Hydro TM combines the impermeability of a containment liner with the hard armour protection and durability of concrete, reducing install times and simplifying logistics.

No Top Cover

CC Hydro TM does not require a protective top cover. This removes the need for additional excavation, the treatment of contaminated arisings and the import of costly fill material.

Maintains Volume Capacity

CC Hydro™ can be laid directly onto existing profiles without loss of volume capacity for refurbishment projects, providing significant overall time and cost savings.

Reduced Life-Cycle Costs

CC Hydro™ provides effective weed suppression, eliminating the ongoing maintenance cost of soil covered systems. It reduces the end-of-life costs associated with treatment of any contaminated top cover.

CC Hydro Key Properties

  • High Impermeability

CC Hydro TM has excellent impermeability and has been independently tested to BS EN 14150 to have a water permeability better than 1×10-11m/s.

  • Durable

CC Hydro TM has a hard armour surface, protecting the geomembrane liner from puncture, abrasion, weathering, burrowing animals and UV degradation. CC HydroTM is BBA certified with a durability in excess of 50 years

  • Chemical Resistance

CC Hydro TM has been shown to have excellent resistance to a wide range of chemical reagents, including hydrocarbons, digestates and acidic leachates

  • Testable Joints

CC Hydro TM incorporates a high-visibility welding strip, allowing the joint to be thermally welded with an air channel for fast and simple on-site pressure testing and quality assurance

CC Hydro Applications

CC Hydro TM can be used to provide a durable, chemically resistant, high impermeability liner for secondary containment applications. Combining the flexibility of a geomembrane with the hard armour protection of concrete, CC HydroTM can be used for bund and berm lining across a wide range of sectors including petrochemical, anaerobic digestion and mine tailings. Concrete Canvas Ltd currently supply 7 out of the top 10 oil and gas operators worldwide. CC Hydro TM can be rapidly unrolled to provide a high impermeability channel, flume or canal lining for drainage, irrigation or hydroelectric schemes; providing flow characteristics similar to smooth concrete (manning’s = 0.011) is 5 times as abrasion resistant as standard OPC concrete – please refer to CCH Data Sheet. CC Hydro TM provides a cost-effective primary containment solution for lagoon and canal lining (for example, river diversions); providing excellent puncture resistance, UV protection and long term durability. CC Hydro TM can be used for a wide range of containment applications, whether it be new-build or the remediation of existing infrastructure, for example, storage tank base lining.
