Non-Woven Synthetic Geotextile

Custom Sized

We cut the geotextile from a roll to suit the configuration of your polypropylene soakwells. The soakwells are completely enclosed in the geotextile.

Australian Made

Geotextiles are commonly found in civil engineering construction projects all over the world and have been used in Australia since the 1977. They have been manufactured in New South Wales since 1987.

Our geotextile is high quality and manufactured to ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System Standards.

Highly Engineered

The geotextile supplied is specially selected due to its high permeability, flow rate, grab strength and tear strength.

The complex three dimensional structure of the non woven, needle punched geotextile acts to block soil particles without reducing the permeability requirements of the soakwell. The opening size and porosity is designed specifically to suit Australian soil conditions.

Features

• Australian Made - High Quality.
• Excellent Filtration.
• High flow through for rapid drainage.
• Sustainable.
• High Strength.
• Not affected by bacteria or fungus (will not degrade under ground).

140L Versitank Soakwell - 3 Dividers

Unique

Our 140 litre trafficable, modular, polypropylene soakwells are the only polypropylene soakwells that feature high strength, interlocking modules and stabilisers that lock both horizontally and vertically.

To maximise performance polypropylene soakwells should be installed in rows. Ideally the volume will be concentrated in two / three areas and the roof area divided proportionally.

Dimensions: W 500mm x L 500mm x H 560mm.

Ten soakwells: 5m long x 0.5m wide. 1400 litres / 1.4 m3

Interlocking

As the individual soakwells are interlocked they provide unparalleled stability under high loads.

These soakwells are extremely rigid, once assembled they are permanently locked together and cannot be taken apart.

They are completely wrapped (like a gift) in a permeable synthetic geotextile, needle punched to allow the water through but not the sand.

Trafficable

These soakwells are suitable for vehicle traffic. They can be installed under driveways, carparks, concrete, paving and grass.

The construction is unlike any other polypropylene soakwell. The small apertures in the panels and dividers minimises the risk of compacted sand and stones rupturing the geofabric.

Easiest to install

Another unique advantage of this product are the actual dimensions of the soakwell. Ideally your polypropylene soakwells will be arranged in rows to maximise the amount of area in contact with sand. At 500mm x 500mm x 560mm these soakwells will take one third less space than other polypropylene soakwells when arranged in rows.

The ability to join the soakwells together also greatly simplifies the installation. For example if ten soakwells are required you can assemble the row of ten in four sections instead of 10 individual soakwells. 2x three soakwells joined together and 2x four soakwells joined together.

Once the soakwell is installed the easiest way to connect the piping is to cut a hole in the top of the soakwell. The inlet pipe then passes through a smaller piece of geotextile that covers the hole and is tightly sealed against the pipe ensuring no sand enters the soakwell.

What's included

Brand: Versitank, manufactured by Sika (formerly Emlich), New South Wales.

Panels: 4 outer panels, 500×500mm each (top, bottom, and 2 side panels).

Dividers: 3 dividers, 440×500mm each. The 2 end dividers form the end walls of the unit, with 1 internal divider.

Geotextile: 2m wide × 2.4m long - covers a single or a double unit. Singles may need trimming.

Sustainable

This product is made from 100% recycled materials and manufactured to the highest standards.

130L Drainwell Soakwell - 4 Dividers

Versatile

Our 130 litre trafficable polypropylene soakwells are great for smaller jobs that only require a small number of soakwells because while they are long, they are not as deep or wide as the 140 litre soakwell.

Dimensions: Length 755mm x width 400mm x Height 437mm.

EXAMPLE - Ten soakwells: 7.5m long x 0.4m wide. 1300 litres / 1.3 m3

Supplied with four stabilisers.

Easy to assemble

Panels and dividers are secured by peg and hole facilitating easy assembly.

They are completely wrapped (like a gift) in a permeable synthetic geotextile, needle punched to allow the water through but not the sand.

Suitable for light traffic

These soakwells are suitable for vehicle traffic on driveways and footways.

Easy to assemble, each module is installed individually. Geofabric included.

Once the soakwell is installed the easiest way to connect the piping is to cut a hole in the top of the soakwell. The inlet pipe then passes through a smaller piece of geotextile that covers the hole and is tightly sealed against the pipe ensuring no sand enters the soakwell.

What's included

Brand: Drainwell, manufactured by Novaplas, Western Australia.

Panels: 4 outer panels, 720×400mm each (top, bottom, and 2 side panels).
