Trends & Forces
Dependence on Regulation
GSE Holding's products are subject to government regulations. These regulations often dictate which covers and liners must be used to prevent the contained substance - be it waste, mining by products, or some other material - from seeping into the surrounding environment. In addition, the make up of the liners and covers themselves must not be harmful to the surrounding region. Thus, if new regulation may impact GSE's products both by supporting or hurting it. [4]
