Information

The combined drainage and compound laying system for protection from shearing force, specially for high-load outdoor steps.

Advantages

  • Single, one-piece drainage system using angled elements pre-shaped in the factory.
  • Unique intelligent special fleece.
    Will slowly disintegrate after hardening of the laying mortar, preventing the fleece pores becoming blocked by limescale.
  • Drainage provides reliable protection
    from frost damage and efflorescence caused by accumulated water. Speeds up drying of natural stone.
  • 6 year warranty for specialist companies.
