Water is a vital part of our daily lives.

Throughout history, the management of water resources has always

been closely linked with the evolution of society.

The great civilisations of the past have left a legacy of important

techniques for water management, from agricultural irrigation and

supply pipelines to preserve this valuable commodity.

Despite the forces of nature often conspiring to undermine man’s

attempts to harness water, man has also developed knowledge of

drainage; controlling water and its sometimes unpredictable and

destructive effects.

Drainage refers to the techniques which control the flow and

distribution of excess water, thereby maximising the benefits and

minimising its negative effects. The risks of poor drainage are proven:

With over 30 years’ experience and product development,

drainage geocomposites

can replace traditional granular materials, offering clients many

benefits: time, cost, safety, reliability and environmental footprint.

Installation

1. Secure the product at the top of the wall or element using wall plugs, nails, adhesive or sacrificial wooden

battens. Overlap the geotextile at the top of the composite to enclose the drainage core

2. Unroll the TERRADRAIN® down the wall maintaining close contact with the insulation/waterproofing,

3. Backfill with soil and compact in accordance with project requirements and whilst avoiding damage to
