Description:

High compressive strength, pre-fabricated geocomposite drain consisting of a studded polystyrene core covered with a heavy duty, needle punched, non- woven polypropylene filter fabric.

Advantages:

• Superior compressive strength – studded core accepts structural and traffic loads, allows water to flow to designated drainage collection points.
• High flow capacity – drains 3 litre/sec/metre width.
• Simple, reliable drainage membrane – collects and controls percolated water under surfacing on podiums, trafficked decks, bridge decks, pipe bays, service ducts, planters on suspended or elevated roof areas, and basements.
• Rot proof – unaffected by permanent immersion in water, bacteria, dilute acids and alkalis.
• Cost effective – replaces expensive aggregate drainage layers or preformed drainage tiles and reduces dead loadings.
• Non-woven filter fabric – allows water to pass into the drain core while restricting the movement of soil and silt particles.
• Enhances waterproofing – conveys water away from waterproofing membrane and eliminates hydrostatic pressure build-up.
• Lightweight – easy to install, hand laid without equipment.
