30 mil PVC Plastic Liners

PVC liner material is fish and plant-life friendly. We custom make flexible 30 mil PVC liners into a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Flat liners come in lengths and widths to accomodate any size tank or pond. The round liners can vary in size from 6' to 40' in diameter. We also make liners for rectangular raceways and square tanks any size. We can round the corners and even bond fittings, including inlets and outlets, right to the liner. PVC has high elongation and is a highly flexible
material. It can easily be shaped to fit the corners and contours of any tank or pond. Versatility is enhanced by the high flexibility, which is perfect in situations of uniqueness. PVC liners are repaired easily when damaged. To install, simply place the liner into the tank or pond and secure as needed. Once in place, the PVC liner will need little or no maintenance. Our liners come in both aqua and black.

Large Commercial Systems

Our liners are custom made to your specifications. We can bond inlet, outlet, and drainage fittings directly to the liner. PVC liner and PVC Reinforced liner materials come in many colors. Our most commonly used colors are black and aqua. See Liner Pricing. The picture at the right is of a rounded rectangular tank 67' long x 30' wide which contains over 60,000 gallons of water. The side walls are corrugated steel rings. The liner sides are in aqua and the bottom features alternating grey and
white colors to enhance photo flashes. The tank water is being circulated around a center partition made out of PVC liner and also by directional aerators hung on the sides of the tank. This tank is used for growing algaeculture and aquaculture. The grower manufactures Bio-diesel out of the harvested algae and at the same time grows fish that feed on the micro-organisms in the water.
