Drainblock is very light and strong and can immediately absorb 95% of its volume in water.
Drainblock is made out of lava and basalt and has a lifetime of over 50 years.
Drainblock systems need very little maintenance. Only the Drainblock-filter has to be cleaned.
100% Circular Economy Solution for sustainable Water Resources Management.
100% natural, environmental friendly and sustainable product that can be recycled.
Drainblock is load-bearing. It comes in different densities and is suited for all traffic categories.
Drainblock combines rainwater harvesting, water retention and infiltration into one. The collected water is available for re-use or groundwater recharge.
Drainblock can retain almost 100% of its volume in water and offers large scale underground water retention with no maintenance. Water collected from roofs, parking areas or roads is immediately absorbed by Drainblock. Underground water reservoirs of any size and shape are easily created, making Drainblock the perfect solution for urban areas.
Drainblock recharges the groundwater through natural infiltration. As the water is filtered Drainblock gives clean water back to the environment. Drainblock can help creating artificial aquifers.
Drainblock stores water at a very high speed. In many locations Drainblock is used to prevent floods or reduce the impact of flash floods.
Drainblock holds water against gravity and can be perfectly used in hilly regions to minimise run-off and reduce peak flows.
Drainblock is used as urban stormwater drainage system. Drainblock drainage systems hold and retain water. When Drainblock is saturated it functions as a drain with delayed discharge.
Drainblock has a great permeability making it the perfect mechanical water filter. Before channeling the water to a Drainblock underground water reservoir suspended solids will be filtered out by our Drainblock filter thereby minimising maintenance to cleaning the filter only.
Drainblock's Cleanblock is inorganic and has great permeability providing a superior environment for bacteria colonisation. Our Cleanblock solution is widely used to treat contaminated open water streams and effluent from septic tanks.
Drainblock is the perfect material for low maintenance, sustainable green roofs. With almost 100% water retention capacity and a very low weight it can be applied at almost all rooftops.
Drainblock is a superior substrate that provides an underground water buffer for plants and trees in gardens. Drainblock is the landscape architects favourite and best friend in creating a beautiful lush green environment.
Drainblock provides the combination of storing rainwater from roads and buildings, and makes it available for the greenbelt alongside these roads.
