Polymer is 8,000x plus more efficient/cheaper than bentonite. One unit of SeekLeak will cover 2,000 - 4,000 SF. Compare this to the following bentonite application rate:
Fair Clay 2 lbs per square foot = 8,000 lbs
Poor Clay 3 lbs per square foot = 12,000 lbs
Silty Loam 3-4 lbs per square foot = 16,000 lbs
Sand 4-5 lbs per square foot = 20,000 lbs
Sand and Gravel 6 lbs per square foot = 24,000 lbs
Gravel & Fractured Bedrock 6 - 8 lbs per square foot = 32,000 lbs
Using a fraction of polymer VS. bentonite reduces project completion timeline, labor, and freight cost - significantly reducing project costs.
Bentonite expansion rate ranges from 2:1 - 32:1. Polymer expansion rate is 300:1.
