Panel Drain
Armourflow™ - Advanced geocomposite drainage board. Protects waterproofing coatings and channels water efficiently to the drainage system, preventing hydrostatic pressure buildup.
Armourflow ™ is comprised of a dimpled high crush resistant plastic core with a geotextile filter bonded to the core to provide a drainage sheet that can collect and filter water ingressing from backfill soils.
Armourflow™ is a 12mm thick, flat backed drainage sheet ideally suited to building and waterproofing applications whereby no point loads are imposed on the waterproofing membrane that may be applied to the wall.
The Armourflow™ sheet drain collects water from the surrounding soil and channels it away ensuring no hydrostatic loads are built up behind the retaining or basement wall.
Armourflow™ can be used to replace conventional mineral drainage aggregate and saves time and money due to its light weight structure and quick and easy installation without the need for heavy machinery. In most cases the onsite soils can be backfilled directly against the Armourflow™, as long as they are granular and free draining. In practice this means no clay or fine silt in the soil.
Suitable for
• Retaining walls
• Basement walls
• Reduction in hydrostatic pressure behind retaining walls
• Additional protection to waterproofing membranes
• Horizontal drainage for roof tops and planter boxes
