The VersaCap system is an impermeable engineered turf system that can be used for intermediate landfill cover and erosion control. It lasts up to 10 years. It reduces leachate and lowers operational costs. The engineered turf fibers are anchored in place and slow water runoff, reducing sediment and improving stormwater management. The system has been tested in extreme weather and provides safer access than exposed geomembranes. It requires lower maintenance than soil caps and stays green all year without additional watering or fertilizing. It can also help control landfill gas emissions and odors when integrated with a landfill gas collection system. The VersaCap system is a cost-effective alternative to pipes, mats, concrete or rip

1. A Cost-Effective, Intermediate
Erosion Solution
for landfills

2. VersaCap® System
• Impermeable Engineered Turf™ manufactured
with a high strength backing
• Lasts up to 10 years
• Applications include:
• Intermediate landfill cover
• Leachate reduction
• Landfill gas collection assistance
• Slope stabilization
• Landfill downchutes
• Landfill drainage channels

3. Leachate
Reduction
• Patented engineered turf seams are welded to LLDPE
carrier strip for more durable strength and impermeability
• Lower operational costs

4. Stays in Place
• Engineered turf fibers significantly reduce wind
uplift pressure on VersaCap®
• Anchor-trenched so does not require continous
ballast such as sand bags or tie-downs

5. Controlled
and Cleaner
Runoff
• Engineered turf fibers slow the sheet flow of
water runoff for better stormwater management
• Runoff is cleaner with no sediment or turbidity
• Significantly reduces the need for the clean out
of perimeter channels and basins.

6. All-Weather
Resistance &
Safety
• Engineered TurfTM technology has been tested and
subjected to significant, if not historic weather
events including, hurricanes, extreme rainfall,
flooding, high winds and harsh winters.
• Team members can easily access equipment and
monitoring devices on foot in a safer, more slip-
resistant environment than exposed geomembrane.

7. Lower
Maintenance
& Aesthetics
• Eliminates the need for soil cap maintenance such
as mowing, erosion repairs and the application of
water, fertilizers and pesticides
• Allows incremental coverage in areas already at
final grade
• Stays green all year providing a natural vegetative
look without the maintenance
• Turf colors are available in olive green, field green
and tan

8. Controls of LFG
Emissions &
Odor Nuisance
• Allows operator to gain influence over odors and gas
releases in a more rapid and efficient manner
• Watershed Geo’s patented surficial landfill gas
collection system and patented pressure relief
valves can be integrated with VersaCap for effective
gas control

9. Storm Water Applications
• Can be used as a cost-
effective, intermediate
solution for storm water
applications, such as bench
drains, downchutes and
perimeter channels
• Flexible, impermeable and
weather resistant
• Designed for stormwater
applications with high-
concentrated flows
• More effective and
aesthetically pleasing
alternative to products, such
as:
• Pipe
• Flexible Mats
• Fabric Formed
Concrete
• Exposed
geomembranes
• Rock Riprap
