Sub Surface Drainage

VersiCell® Drainage Cells

VersiCell® is a lightweight, high strength modular drainage cell designed primarily for sub-surface drainage, and to form tanks for underground storm water infiltration or storage.

VersiCell® When installed between roof decks and pavers or ballast, VersiCell drainage cells reduce sound transmission and increase heat insulation.

Unlike drainage sheets or other drainage cells, VersiCell® is designed to withstand loads imposed by mechanical equipment such as bob-cats.

Available in 30mm high modules, VersiCell® modules interlock in the same plane, at right angles to one another, or may be butted together.

VersiCell® drainage cells are used for sub-soil drainage and to form tanks for underground water infiltration or storage systems in:

  • Landscape decks & planter boxes
  • Plaza decks, balconies & pool sides
  • Sports fields & golf courses
  • Roof Gardens
  • Concealed drains
  • Retaining/basement walls
  • Storm drains
  • Pond filtration
  • Infiltration & storage tanks
  • Sub surface drainage systems
  • Water Sensitive Urban Designs (WSUD)
  • Groundwater management
  • Sports field drainage
  • Road edge drains
different buildings and landscapes
VersiCell® has a wide range of applications due to its strength, efficient capture and discharge of high water volumes.

VersiFlex®

VersiCell® is a lightweight, high strength modular drainage cell designed primarily for sub-surface drainage, and to form tanks for underground storm water infiltration or storage.

VersiFlex® offers architects and developers extensive design flexibility and has a wide range of applications in the landscape, building and construction industries.

VersiFlex® modules are 30 mm high and are easy to install, by interlocking in the same plane or by butting together without interlocking.

VersiFlex® can create a thermal insulation barrier.

VersiFlex® has a narrow-profile, open surface design and high internal void volume enabling the rapid capture and transport of high water volumes.

VersiFlex® stackable and nestable design halves on-site storage space requirements and transportation costs compared to competitive products.

VersiFlex® flexible drainage modules effectively drain water on:

  • Planter boxes
  • Roof gardens
  • Landscaped decks
  • Retaining/basement walls
VersiFlex used under pebbles
VersiFlex® efficiently drains water in planter boxes and on roof garden and landscaped deck applications.

What is VersiDrain® 8 Geo

VersiDrain® 8 Geo is a studded high flow rated drainage sheet that provides effective drainage and waterproof membrane protection for foundation walls and other underground structures.

VersiDrain® 8 Geo incorporates an integrated non-woven geotextile covering the studs that prevents soil particles blocking the drainage sheet. The geotextile creates an air gap for reliable ventilation and allows inflow and transport of water from surrounding soil.

VersiDrain® 8 Geo with its vertical stud structure effectively captures and transports high water volumes and resists high loads from earth and formwork.

VersiDrain® 8 Geo fast and effective installation of surface protection and drain.

VersiDrain® 8 Geo drainage sheets provides effective drainage and waterproof membrane protection on:

  • Retaining and basement walls
  • Tunnels and landfills
  • Paved areas
  • Roof gardens and landscaped decks
  • Planter boxes
