Applications

Where It Works Best


Proven performance across infrastructure, transport, and recreation projects

Railways

Embankment Protection

Prevents erosion and slippage on rail embankments while maintaining drainage capacity through freeze-thaw cycles.

Highways

Verge Drainage

Manages surface water runoff effectively along highway verges, reducing standing water and associated safety risks.

Sports

Field Drainage

Delivers all-weather playability for sports fields and playgrounds with rapid surface water removal.

Urban

Parks & Green Spaces

Supports vegetation growth while providing sub-surface drainage for public green spaces and landscaped areas.

Residential

Property Drainage

Lightweight solution for residential drainage challenges including garden waterlogging and driveway runoff management.

Emergency

Rapid Deployment

Fast-install drainage for temporary sites, events, and emergency flood mitigation where speed is critical.

Installation

Rapid Deployment


Simple installation with no specialist equipment required

Drainage mat being carried to installation site Drainage mat being cut to size on site Aggregate being added over drainage mats

No Heavy Plant Required

Drainage mats are lightweight enough to carry by hand and can be cut to size on-site with standard tools. Simply prepare the surface, position the mats, secure edges, and cover with topsoil or aggregate as specified. The entire process can be completed in a fraction of the time required by traditional drainage methods.
