Polystorm
An efficient and versatile solution for SUDS compliant attenuation or soakaway, Polypipe modular cells are hard wearing, lightweight and provide a 95% void ratio for maximum water capture and retention. With a quick yet robust interlocking mechanism, they can be combined to create a strong, flexible tank below paved areas such as car parks, to store water channelled from building guttering and surface drains. By offering a completely bespoke approach to sub-surface water storage, Polystorm gives specifiers and contractors the opportunity to create a wholly unique design to suit the exact demands of their development. That means less waste and lower costs in a value-engineered solution that can be wrapped in an impermeable membrane for attenuation applications, or in a permeable membrane for soakaway to surrounding sub soil. Polystorm is compatible with the rest of the Polypipe WMS product range as part of a complete 'roof to river' water management solution.
