Polypropylene crate wrapped in non-woven geotextile used in creating soakaways.
Suitable for residential and commercial projects.
CORE Water Crates are a safe and intelligent solution to rainwater management, providing a step forward in drainage technology and moving away from the old-fashioned, inefficient soakaways filled with hardcore and building waste. The easy-to-assemble crate can be installed beneath gardens, pedestrian areas and driveways with light vehicular traffic.
The durable and robust crates help alleviate flooding by creating a structural void in the ground, allowing water to flow in from surrounding subsoil and reducing the build-up of hydrostatic pressure. Water is able to penetrate through the non-woven membrane and collect in the crate where it will then slowly infiltrate back into the ground at a natural pace.
The performance of a soakaway is dependent on the porosity/infiltration rate of the surrounding subsoil. Installation in heavy clay soil should be avoided. If creating multiple crate soakaways, ensure they are installed in areas free of vehicular traffic.
