Video: MonoShield® Accelerates Redevelopment for New River City Business Park
A historic St. Louis manufacturing site has been transformed from a former brownfield to the new River City Business Park. Green Street Real Estate Ventures, working with environmental consultant ATON Environmental, specified MonoShield, a reinforced metalized contaminant vapor barrier proven to be a more cost-effective and reliable choice for vapor intrusion mitigation. Learn more by watching the case study video.

MonoShield® Technical Data Sheet
MonoShield® is a single-layer, under slab contaminant vapor barrier offering superior chemical resistance, durability, and ease of installation versus traditional sheet membranes. The patented MonoShield system is composed of an innovative metalized composite geomembrane, MonoBase™, that is seamed together during installation with Nitra‑Core™, a spray‑applied, nitrile-modified asphalt. MonoShield is an optimal mitigation solution to reduce liability for large, slab-on-grade buildings where installation speed is critical, for sites with a low-level vapor intrusion (VI) risk, or for use in conjunction with active sub-slab venting systems.

Learning Lab Demonstration with Hieu Nguyen, Principal Engineer, at the AVIP VI Conference
Attending the AVIP VI Conference in Nashville, TN October 9th-11th? Be sure to attend Land Science’s Learning Lab conducted by Hieu Nguyen titled “Best Practices for Quality Assurance/Quality Control for Passive Barrier Installations at New and Existing Buildings.” Hieu will conduct a 15-minute demonstration that reviews the recommended quality control practices for membrane installation at both new and existing buildings. This training will focus on quality control steps to measure spray-applied barrier thickness, and verify seam integrity and physical properties of composite barriers during field installation. The demonstration will include a hands-on display where attendees can witness and test vapor barriers on aggregate to simulate field installation procedures. Contact Jordan Knight to receive $50 off your VI Conference registration. We hope to see you there!
