That's a wrap 2024 was a successful year for us across the globe. Thanks to our team, colleagues, partners, and customers, we achieved some incredible milestones. Here are a handful of highlights to look back on: → Houston: Geomembrane manufacturing expansion We modernized our Houston facility by refurbishing equipment, implementing comprehensive training programs, and focusing on reliability projects. These efforts enhanced production efficiency and reduced scrap rates for GSE and FABRINET product lines. → Malaysia: WMAM award for waste management excellence The WMAM honored us with the Outstanding Achievement Award for our POME Biogas W2E project in Malaysia, recognizing our contributions to environmental stewardship and the circular economy. → Europe: Geotextile recycling for sustainability We partnered to launch a geotextile recycling initiative, transforming construction waste into reusable materials and promoting a greener future. → Australia: Geomembrane expertise at GEOANZ#2 At GEOANZ#2, we interviewed industry experts on HDPE geomembranes for mining applications. The insights we gathered reinforced our leadership and innovation in this field. → Germany: LAGA certification for BENTOLINER® We achieved LAGA certification for our BENTOLINER® geosynthetic clay liners in Germany, ensuring they met the highest standards for environmental safety and containment performance. → North America: Launched an enhanced MIRAFI® RS𝘪 series We launched an enhanced MIRAFI RSi series geosynthetics, for enhanced road durability through passive moisture management with advanced wicking yarns. #WEARESOLMAX
