About Us
Concord Geotechnical is a primary international supplier of geosynthetics installation equipment. Founder Steve Hobbs entered the geosynthetics industry in 1982, and was instrumental in developing the first wedge welders and related test equipment, helping to shape the standards and techniques of the growing geomembrane lining industry.
Now in our 19th year of operation, Concord enjoys a solid reputation worldwide for machines that produce consistent quality results under the most challenging field conditions. Our flagship product, the 905 PowerWedge, has become the wedge welder of choice for lining installers. Comments as diverse as the following tell the story:
- "The Concord 905 is superb equipment for the job. The workers love it and it performs well in our tropical climate." - Jesus E. Andreu, Oficina Technica, APS c.a. Caracas, Venezuela
- "We've installed millions of square feet with Concord welders. They've proven to be durable in all field condition and reliably produce quality welding seam after seam." - Terry Ragsdale, President, Plastic Fusion Fabricators, Huntsville, AL USA
- "We're very impressed. The Concord wedge welder offers higher production rates, less maintenance, and greater reliability than other machines we've tried." - Troy Emery, Master Seamer, RTD Enterprises, Madison, ME USA
- "We are extremely pleased with the performance and durability of your wedge welders. We have no reason to look elsewhere for our weld or test equipment." - John Ramos, President, United Linings, Inc., Phoenix, AZ USA
