 Irrigation Ditch Liners
Agriculture in many parts of the county depends on the availability of water, and irrigation channels / canals are typically used to transport water from the sources to end users. Over time, these channels / canals can deteriorate due to erosion, ground movement caused by freeze/thaw cycles, or corrosion of the building materials. SmartDitch irrigation ditch liners provide a durable solution to these problems and can increase water distribution in irrigation systems by as much as 90 percent.
SmartDitch’s flow characteristics remain constant over time providing maximum flow of water over the life of the system. The product’s HDPE material withstands abrasive flows, corrosion, and even the most aggressive chemical attacks. SmartDitch also prevents unwanted vegetation growth and the corrugated wall design produces a self-scouring action that minimizes silt build up in the flowline.
SmartDitch liners are easily installed in new construction applications or replacing failed concrete canals or earthen channels, greatly reducing long term maintenance costs. SmartDitch’s lightweight design makes it the perfect product to install in remote sites where accessibility is an issue.
