Geomembrane deficiencies can result from activities conducted at [the] manufacturing [stage]: Insufficient ply adhesion, which occurs mostly with reinforced geomembranes, generally because of insufficient strike-through, and/or improper heating and pressing during calendering (delamination and blistering).

OBS

Calendered geomembranes are always made with polymeric compounds and are usually made up of three plies: compound/scrim/compound. Sometimes they are made of five plies: compound/scrim/compound/scrim/compound. Geomembrane with additional plies can be made on a custom basis.
