DESCRIPTION
FLAGON GEOP membrane is a synthetic membrane made from TPO by co-extrusion. It has different physical-chemical properties on each side:
- the upper surface (light green) is treated against UV rays
- the underside (black) is highly resistant to puncture and perforation by roots
Any tears in the light green upper layer (signal-layer) of the membrane can be seen immediately due to the difference in colour between the two sides. A glass fibre sheet is positioned between the two layers.
The raw materials used to produce FLAGON TPO membranes are obtained by mixing modified polyolefins with different additives by means of a process that creates a paste which is later transformed into granules.
This combination gives the synthetic membranes the following advantages:
- High resistance to ageing and weathering
- The elastomer component provides suppleness and flexibility with high mechanical and chemical resistance
CIVILROCK attaches the highest importance to the quality of its products. This is why we operate a quality assurance system according to ISO 9001 BSI certified.

PACKING AND STORAGE
Rolls must be stored in upright position to prevent damage. Store rolls in a clean dry location and cover as necessary to protect from any environmental impact such as extreme cold, heat, or moisture. Monitor varying environmental conditions during storage, handling and application of FLAGON® GEOP.
INTENDED USE OR USES
FLAGON GEOP is a TPO thermoplastic membrane dimensionally stabilized with a sheet of glass fibre, specifically designed for waterproofing basins, tanks, canals and similar structures. This membrane lining can contain salt or fresh water and low-concentration liquid chemicals. To verify the compatibility with the specific chemical liquids, please contact the technical office CIVILROCK (tech-office@soprema.it). The sheets are welded together by applying hot air or using hot wedge, with manual or automatic welder. The welding can be made either with a track that with double track. The double track allows to perform a pneumatic test with air.
FLAGON GEOP is compatible with all the accessories and membranes in the FLAGON TPO range
