The Original Drainage Cell since 1986
The Atlantis Flo-Cell® drainage system is an Atlantis flagship product invented and developed by the founder of the company in 1986. The product was developed to facilitate adding roof top gardens and planter boxes to building construction without adding heavy aggregate as drainage that placed severe limitations on the structural design of the building. The product provided a structurally strong structure, highly effective drainage and lightweight properties that were so successful that the drainage cell became a landscaping industry standard.
The Atlantis Flo-Cell® Drainage Cell is available in the following sizes;
- 20mm - DOWNLOAD SPECIFICAITON SHEET
- 30mm - DOWNLOAD SPECIFICAITON SHEET
- 50mm - DOWNLOAD SPECIFICAITON SHEET
The Atlantis Flo-Cell® range is a versatile product suitable for many applications including the drainage of sports fields, civil works, retaining walls and landscaping applications. The Flo-Cell® is also ideally suited for WSUD (Water Sensitive Urban Design) applications and provides and ideal use for increasing the permeability of ground areas which reduces overland flow and facilitates groundwater recharge.
