EPDM is a heavy gauge rubber material. It is UV resistant and quite tear
resistant. It is a great liner material, aside from it's weight. For my
pond, the liner weight probably close to a hundred pounds.

Cool. Since I'm planning on putting in a pond soon, it's nice to get all
the hints I can!!!

I prefer the EPDM because of cost. The weight does not bother me. How many
times am I really going to pick it up? LOL. Xavan, and Permalon are other
options. Very light weight but a bit more pricey. PVC has been used as well,
but it is sensitive to UV and will breakdown eventually, so it's IMHO a bad
choice.

I have a few bits and pieces of liner info here,

So you don't recommend the pre-formed pond liners at all?
