MEL-DRAIN drainage products combine geotextile filter fabrics with specially designed drainage cores. This geocomposite allows the passage of moisture through the fabric while preventing fine soils from entering the drainage channel. Various drain designs are available, depending on compressive strength and flow rate requirements. (An optional polymeric backing film is available when used in conjunction with flexible waterproofing material.) The family of MEL-DRAIN products provides excellent protection and drainage performance for vertical, horizontal, or site drainage applications.
