IKO Plasdrain drainage mats are manufactured from a three-dimensional polymer core with a geotextile filter fabric bonded to one side.
This creates a highly effective drainage void whilst the geotextile filter fabric prevents penetration of the drain by unwanted small fines, such as sand, soil, etc, which can cause blockages.
The impermeable core prevents water pressure from building against the structure being protected.
IKO Plasdrain drainage mats actively reduce the hydrostatic pressure acting upon a waterproofing system by exhibiting higher flow rates than that of mineral drainage systems.
