A guide to the selection and specification of Pozidrain® drainage geocomposite

Pozidrain Pozidrain is the original wide width drainage and gas venting layer and offers a sustainable, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional drainage using filter stone Pozidrain consists a high strength flexible polyethylene cuspated core with a non-woven geotextile bonded to either one or both sides. The geotextile filters a wide range of materials and is bonded to the core to ensure that it does not deform into the drainage passages under the load of the backfill material. It allows fluids and gases to percolate into the core whilst supporting the backfill material. The collected...

Waste Management Landfill Capping To guarantee effective cover, landfill caps should incorporate a drainage layer above and a gas collection layer below the lining system. Pozidrain has the properties to provide these functions and offers improved performance with lower costs than using conventional crushed stone filter/drainage layers Pozidrain is designed to be compatible with all common lining systems and provides optimum performance over the whole-life of the cap. It enhances the performance of GCL or HDPE liners by providing an additional barrier that prevents the majority of the water or...

Waste Management Landfill Base & Side Slope Lining The wide width Pozidrain Protector geocomposite drainage layer offers major advantages over conventional drainage stone layers. It creates more landfill volume and has the hydraulic properties for reliable and sustainable performance. In basal applications high strength cores are used, the mechanical resistance of the material is more than sufficient to endure installation stresses and long term loading. Pozidrain reduces the hydraulic head and physical stress on the geomembrane (as demonstrated by the cylinder test EN13719:2002 Annex B) and...

Environmental protection Land Reclamation Wide width Pozidrain geocomposites are used in soil stabilisation applications where its high tensile strength and flow capacity ensure excellent reinforcement and separation. Pozidrain provides a more environmentally acceptable solution than crushed stone drainage layers. It is lighter, uses less transport and helps conserve finite natural resources. As a result of its highly effective drainage properties Pozidrain often enables low grade, recycled material to be used as backfill, saving on material movements. Environmental protection Fill consolidation...
