aquaPLAN PVC Liner 0.5mm is a black, UV-resistant PVC pond liner manufactured in Sweden that provides a flexible, cost-effective lining solution for small to medium garden ponds and water features. It dresses easily into corners and shelves, is safe for fish and pond plants, and is supplied as a single sheet available up to 5m wide and 10m long for this product. AquaSHIELD protective matting can be added alongside it for extra underfoot protection.
Key benefits
- Smooth, shiny black finish with UV resistance for reliable long-term outdoor use
- Highly flexible and thinner than EPDM rubber, making it easier to work into tight corners and shelves
- Average puncture resistance rating, so budgeting for a protective underlay is worth considering
- Safe for fish, other aquatic life and pond plants
- Suited to small to medium garden ponds and water features rather than larger lakes or reservoirs
Material and construction
This liner is made from 0.5mm PVC, weighing around 0.65kg per square metre. It's rated with no elasticity, meaning it won't stretch to fit the way a rubber liner will, so accurate measuring before you order matters more here. Sheets are welded during manufacture with an overlap of roughly 50mm, which can leave one edge up to 10cm shorter than the stated size, so it's worth sizing up rather than down.
Protective matting (optional)
Given this liner has no elasticity and an average puncture resistance rating, laying a protective underlay beneath it is a sensible precaution against stones and roots. AquaSHIELD protective matting is available in 200gsm and 275gsm, and can be added to your order alongside the liner.
Puncture resistance and site preparation
The manufacturer's specification rates this liner's puncture resistance as average, so it's worth clearing the excavation of sharp stones and roots before laying it, and taking extra care if your pond is sited near trees or shrubs.
Lifespan
The manufacturer's specification gives a life span of 15-20 years for this liner.
