On December 14 and 15, Torninova is holding an open house to unveil Geomac, a cast system for the production of 4,000 mm wide dimpled drainage membranes made from HDPE. These membranes are widely used in the construction industry and in the infrastructures sector (roads, railways, tunnels etc.) not only for their draining properties, but also because they provide soundproofing and thermal insulation. The embossed type is used as a protective barrier on building façades and foundations, but can also be used on roofs and roof gardens as a layer between the different materials, and also to support the surface layers.
The machines in the Geomac range can produce embossed membranes in different sizes and thicknesses, in one or two colours. To enhance the draining properties of the membrane, the line also allows the product to be laminated with a non-woven textile (PP); in addition, the membranes can be labelled with an ID strip. The machines can also be equipped with an automatic or semi-automatic winder for roll sealing and extraction.
