## Multifunctiounal Green Roof Drainage Mats

### Enkadrain products are an essential part for green roof and roof garden drainage. Water saturation due to insufficient drainage can result in leaks and roof damage.

**1. Diverse Green Roof Types for Enhanced Benefits:** Semi-intensive, intensive, and extensive green roofs offer a range of advantages for project owners and entire communities.

**2. Beyond Stormwater Management:** Apart from addressing stormwater runoff, these green roofs play a crucial role in absorbing heat, cutting down building cooling expenses, and enhancing the local microclimate.

**3. Visual Appeal and Biodiversity Haven:** These green roofs are not only visually appealing but also create a habitat for insects and other wildlife, contributing to biodiversity.

## Why Select Enkadrain?

Enkadrain brings a multi-functional layer for the drainage for surplus water, protection and filtration without the risk of clogging.  Enkadrain has a 95% open 3 dimensional polymeric drainage core which offers a high waster discharge  due to its open structure. Add to that a good load-bearing capacity.

## **Filtration or Filtration and Water Retention**

With Enkadrain you have the choice of filtration or filtration and water retention capabilities. The non-woven filter layer serves to protect the sealing layer and as a separator from the substrate. An additional retention layer of non-woven fleece benefits both storm water management by reducing runoff and plant health by storing water for use by the plants, maintaining optimum growing conditions. The choice of the right Enkadrain product type depends on the specific roof structure and use. Certain types of Enkadrain are designed for use in extensive or intensive green roofs; others offer effective solutions for construction projects where roof gardens are intended to take vehicular traffic or other heavy loads, making compression resistance essential.

 

## What Makes Enkadrain The Product of Choice?

- Continuous, important water discharge even under high loads
- Predictable flow rates and does not allow water to be trapped
- Protects waterproofing during and after backfill
- Prevents silting up of the collector drain
- The open air profile provides better insulation and allows roots to breathe
