MaxiDrain

MaxiDrain asphalt has been developed for use in sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS) to provide excellent drainage and durability.

The solution works in line with current planning requirements by managing rainfall for a wide range of applications including porous or ground water storage technology.

MaxiDrain helps to prevent localised flooding with its unique design. It utilises a premium polymer modified bitumen (PMB) to provide a durable# free-draining solution that out-performs traditional open textured asphalt concrete (AC) materials and the requirements for SUDS systems.

Installation

MaxiDrain should be laid in accordance with BS 594987 by surfacing contractors experienced in SUDS installation systems, with attention given to the foundation, drainage characteristics and traffic loading#. Due to improved workability, MaxiDrain can be laid by conventional paver or hand-laid.

Maintenance

• Avoid construction and heavy plant using the surface.
• Light traffic should avoid static turning with power steering.
• The surface should be kept as clean as practicable. Vacuum any: leaves, spillages/site detritus.
• Use of power washers is not recommended as debris can be forced into the matrix causing blockages.
• Standard road sweepers can be used occasionally but may damage the surface.
• During Winter use spreaders/applicators to apply rock salt.
• Clear snow with a suitable plastic shovel. If using mechanical means use plastic/rubber buckets or ploughs.
