DRAINAGE CELLS
Geotex Drainage Cells are a lightweight three dimensional geo-composite used for subsurface water management. The polypropylene drainage cell is molded into a unique profile and then may be wrapped in a filtration geotextile which then provides a complete void space for the water to travel without any obstruction. Its lightweight, high compressive strength makes the product ideal for roof gardens and podium landscaping, retaining walls, sports fields and golf courses, under drains for slabs and foundations and subsurface drainage for permeable driveway and car parks.
Geotex Drainage cells are designed to allow optimal growing conditions for vegetation through ideal moisture conditions and aeration. Only excess water is removed and the soil profile retains a high moisture content.
