About DRAIN CELL TRAY
91 000 74051 Drainage cells are lightweight, interlocking modular units, typically made from recycled polypropylene, designed to create a crucial void space beneath surfaces for efficient sub-surface water management. This interconnected network allows water to flow horizontally towards drainage outlets, preventing waterlogging in green spaces, reducing hydrostatic pressure against structures like retaining walls and basements, and facilitating stormwater runoff in paved areas. Their high compressive strength supports overlying layers, while their ease of installation and environmental benefits, such as the use of recycled materials and contribution to sustainable drainage systems, make them a versatile and valuable component in various landscaping and construction applications.
Superior Structural IntegrityWith a minimum compressive strength of 250 kN/m2 and a robust HDPE structure, the Drain Cell Tray supports heavy loads, making it ideal for podiums, lawns, rooftops, and even high-traffic landscaping applications. It's engineered for long-term durability under demanding site conditions.
Optimized Water Drainage EfficiencyDesigned with more than 65% open area and individual cell diameters of 30 mm, these trays deliver exceptional water flow rates of 8.5 L/s/m vertically. This performance prevents water stagnation, supports healthy plant growth, and enhances waterproofing in sub-structural applications.
Sustainable and Versatile SolutionConstructed from 100% recyclable materials, the Drain Cell Tray is both eco-friendly and practical. Its modular, lightweight design simplifies transport and installation, while its chemical and biological resistance ensures reliable operation in diverse climates across India.
