Drainage composites offer a lightweight alternative to sand or gravel. The Enkadrain 3000R Series features a post-industrial recycled polypropylene core sandwiched between geocomposite fabric. Fused, entangled filaments in the core relieve hydrostatic pressure from soils surrounding below-grade structures. The core channels water to the discharge system before it reaches subsurface walls. System can contribute two LEED credits when used with other recycled content products.
