          Notes:1. PGI 1104 replaces PGI 1103 Specification effective 1/1/04.

              2. Certified properties are tested by lot as specified in PGI 1104 Appendix A or every 18,000 kg (40,000 lbs.).

              3. Metric values are converted from US values and are rounded to the available significant digits.

              4. Modifications or further details of test are described in PGI 1104 Appendix B.

              5. Index properties are tested once per formulation as specified in PGI 1104 Appendix A.    

              

       The PGI 1104 Specification was developed with the cooperation of PGI member

       companies in order to meet the stringent requirements of today’s geosynthetic

       applications. To assure this level of quality, be sure to specify that your PVC

       geomembrane is produced and fabricated by a PGI member.
