Underground Stormwater Management System
Modular Tank System RainSmart® modular tank system are suited for subsurface, infiltration, retention and detention stormwater applications. Manufactured using recycled materials, the tank modules are a lightweight, engineered design, structural component developed through research & development. It is ideally used for the construction of underground Infiltration, retention, detention tanks, grass swale, subsurface interception channels, septic leach drains and light weight void fillers for roof gardens and planter boxes applications. The RainSmart tank module system supersedes traditional gravel and pipe based systems by far. The system provides a void space ratio of over 95% compared to 30 - 40% in typical gravel and pipe based systems. Consequently, the RainSmart system offers a smaller footprint for the same storage volume, significantly saving the amount of excavation, soil transport, importing clean aggregate and thus reducing earthworks related installation costs, and causes minimum site disruption. The RainSmart tank modules are available in kit form making it economical and easy to transport and handle. The lightweight nature of the tank modules also eliminates the use of heavy machinery, and makes installation quick and easy. The modular design and stackable structural capabilities of the tank modules distribute the loads evenly and allows it to be used in both traffic and landscaped areas with a high safety factor. The modular design also means that you can create any shape and size of the underground stormwater structure on site without disturbing the surrounding site conditions and maximize land use.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS • Onsite stormwater management • Environmentally friendly made from selected recycled polypropylene • Recharges groundwater table through principle of infiltration. • Mitigation of downstream flooding • Site space utilization and minimum site disruption. • Economical and low maintenance system • Modular structure for design flexibility • Heavy load carrying capacity • Supplied in kit form for ease in transportation • High void surface ratio for quicker infiltration • Lightweight
RainSmart tank modules have a unique low flow design to provide a total linear access, for inspection and maintenance purpose. This system allows the designer to effectively control the buildup of sediments in the tank, and allows for flushing of the system if ever required.

Drainage Cell Rainsmart 30mm drainage cell provides a perfect Solution for sub-soil drainage and gas collection systems and low impact design applications such as roof gardens without traditional problems associated with cracking or leakage. The drainage cells provides a uniform surface as well as an internal void space for effective draining of excess water.
The drainage cell system has a unique diamond cup structure which provides water retention for passive irrigation and helps building a perch water table in the above soil profile for the vegetation to flourish in prolonged dry periods. RainSmart drainage cell is made from recycled polypropylene and is inert to soil borne chemicals and bacteria. RainSmart cell’s shallow and effective drainage profile helps landscapers to make use of mature plants on roof garden which needs soil depth and water retention properties. High summer temperatures can cause thermal expansion in concrete and can cause waterproofing to crack. The RainSmart drainage cell system due to its unique design and void properties helps this heat to escape, hence reducing the risk of cracking, enhancing the buildings’ life.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS • High compressive load carrying capacity of up to 140 tons/m2. • High lateral flow capacity • Maintains actual void size for effective drainage after backfill & compaction •
Low weight, only 3.2 kg/ sqm compared to 250 kgs/ sqm of gravel for the same effective drainage,-hence reduces deck loads
• Thin - reduces depth of cover and allows the use of mature planting in shallow conditions • Holds and creates a perch water table, providing ideal moist conditions for plant growth • Reduces hydrostatic forces upon sub-grade walls • Reduce the risk of waterproofing to crack due to thermal expansion in hot periods
