Drainage and Water Management

Drainage

Foamit foam glass aggregates have a highly permeable structure that allows efficient water flow through the material. This makes Foamit suitable for drainage solutions and applications where effective management of rainwater and excess water is essential.

As climate change increases the need for resilient water management solutions, Foamit provides a robust material for handling water in infrastructure and construction projects. The open structure allows water to pass through while maintaining stable and durable fill structures.

Effective drainage and stormwater management

The interconnected voids between Foamit foam glass aggregates provide excellent drainage capacity and help manage water in the ground. This makes Foamit suitable for solutions where controlling water flow, reducing water accumulation and protecting construction structures are important.

Typical applications include:

  • Stormwater management systems
  • Drainage layers in roads and infrastructure
  • Green roofs and roof constructions
  • Backfill around buildings and structures
  • Drainage and protection of underground structures
