Tidewall Sheet Piling

Design and Performance 

Tidewall vinyl seawalls offer the best value among vinyl seawall suppliers. The structural performance of a seawall is directly tied to the quality and dimensions of each extruded sheet. Tidewall uses only 100% window grade UV stabilized PVC compound throughout the seawall. Window grade PVC is the best quality PVC compound for producing seawalls, far better than siding, fence, or pipe grade in terms of UV stability and impact resistance. Tidewall seawalls are deliberately designed to be slightly thicker and slightly deeper than competitive alternatives. This gives added performance and structural strength to a Tidewall seawall.

While other seawall suppliers are offering thinner, less structurally strong products to cut costs, Tidewall has vertically integrated. They control all aspects of the manufacturing process, keeping the costs low. As a result, Tidewall can provide high quality vinyl sheet piling products at a very affordable price.

Tidewall is manufactured in 6 different "Box" profiles, varying in width, thickness, and depth,   There are also 2 z-profiles available.  Other than seawalls, Tidewall can also be used for dikes and flood walls, retaining walls, landscaping applications, cut-off (seepage) walls, road construction, canal containment, and other erosion control applications. Tidewall vinyl sheet piling is engineered for the sheet piling construction industry according to the US Army Corp of Engineers design guidelines and tested to ASTM material specifications.

Tidewall is produced from highly weatherable, impact resistant recycled PVC compound. Through our parent company Regenex Corporation, we control the recycling process from material acquisition, to cleaning, sorting and grinding, to insure a high quality compound. Other vinyl sheet piling manufacturers are not vertically integrated to this degree.

This carefully prepared compound is then extruded into the finished Tidewall shapes. Careful attention is paid to the physical specifications; wall thickness to maintain strength, the flange angles to make a straight wall, and the male and female lock dimensions to insure ease of installation. Careful and consistent calibration and cooling of the part is required to maintain straightness. Pigment is added to produce the required color, with light grey being the standard, but other colors also available.

Tidewall produces both mono-extruded and co-extruded Tidewall products. It is important to note that both methods can produce high-quality walls. Mono-extrusion is one compound, extruded through the entire thickness of the part. Co-extrusion is extruding two compounds at the same time to form the finished sheet; a typically lower cost substrate material to give the sheet its mass, and a weatherable cap to cover the exposed surfaces. Regardless of which one we use on a given Tidewall sheet, our compounds are all highly weatherable, impact modified compounds, inside and out. Our vertical integration gives us a significant cost advantage over other manufacturers, which is why, despite the use of premium raw materials, Tidewall sheets are always competitively priced.
