Our History

In 1993, Dennis Shanklin and his team converged their extensive experience in civil engineering, environmental construction and product manufacturing to establish what is now EFI USA, LLC.

That wealth of knowledge and experience helped EFI become the leader it is today in project capabilities, design, fabrication and installation of geosynthetic products, providing covers, liners and containment systems that reduce air pollution, protect water sources, and optimize the customer experience. 

Innovation remains at the forefront of EFI’s growth. Utilizing its impermeable cover and liner systems expertise, EFI became the leading provider of biodigester solutions for the production and use of biogas. Based in South Carolina, EFI continues to create new solutions to fit industrial, municipal, agricultural, and Renewable Natural Gas client needs.
