However, clogging issues related to geotextiles, in which geosynthetic clay liners are
used, may threaten growth prospects in the coming years. Bio -based polymers are
gaining prominence due to rising concerns over greenhouse gas emissions. This is
driving spending on development of new products such as bio-polypropylene and bioethylene.
The global geosynthetic clay liner market is categorized as per applications and
regions. Applications comprise landfill, containment & wastewater treatment, roadways
& civil construction, and others. Landfill was the biggest segment and accounted for 40
percent of the total volumes in 2014.
Various regulatory bodies have introduced stringent rules that mandate waste
management and disposal practices for controlling pollution in the mining industry.
These directives could boost consumption of geosynthetic clay liners in landfills from
2015 to 2022.
Regional fragments encompass North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific,
and MEA (Middle East & Africa). Asia-Pacific was the biggest regional market in 2014.
It held about 30 percent of the total volumes that year. This region’s demand would
reach 59 million square meters by 2022.
Increasing production of shale gas in the U.S. and Canada is likely to spur the demand
in wastewater management in the North America region. Infrastructural developments
in African nations such as Tanzania and South Africa will further adoption of
geosynthetic clay liner in the building and road construction over the next seven years.
The global geosynthetic clay liner market is dominated by the manufacturers focussed
mainly on geomembranes and geotextile owing to application growth in waste water
management and soil reinforcement. Key participants of the market are Terrafix, GSE
Holdings, HUESKER, and Wall Tag.
