Water is one of the most valuable resources for farmers, industries, and households in Kenya. With unpredictable weather patterns and increasing demand for reliable water storage, dam liners have become a cost-effective and durable solution.
At Ago Ventures Kenya, we provide high-quality dam liners in Kenya designed to meet the needs of farmers, institutions, and businesses looking for long-term water conservation and management. Whether you need to line a dam, tank, or fish pond, our liners ensure zero leakage and maximum durability.
What are Dam Liners?
A dam liner is a protective synthetic sheet, usually made from HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), used to prevent seepage of water in dams, ponds, tanks, and reservoirs. In Kenya, dam liners are especially important due to the porous soils found in many regions, which make traditional water retention difficult.
They are resistant to UV rays, chemicals, and punctures, making them ideal for agriculture, aquaculture, and industrial water storage.
