Description
Inbitex™ is a specialist nonwoven geotextile designed for use within PPS (pervious pavement systems) or SUDS (sustainable urban drainage systems) to provide separation, filtration and removal of pollutants from water runoff.
Features and benefits:
- Attracts & traps hydrocarbons (oil) - prevents pollution.
- Unique fibre matrix provides perfect habitat for microbial film - breaks down up to 400 g oil/SQM/year.
- Nonwoven material with isotropic properties, same strength in all directions extending pavement life.
- High permeability and low pore sizes - effectively filters silts and other pollutants.
- Chemically inert and durable.
- Service life in excess of 100 years.
- Lightweight and easy to handle - low risk of manual handling injury.
