6 Filcoten Overview 100% Eco-friendly Economical handling of mineral raw materials 100 % recyclable (Tested by the soil and building materials testing facility in Linz) Not using plastic resins, hardening agent or solvent No chemical harm to employees or the environment Low Exposure to dust and noise No harmful effects to humans or nature Long service life, thereby conserving resources Better carbon footprint for each channel, achieved by a low weight (comparable with concrete) Filcoten channels are made from 100% natural energy. Filcoten energy mix: We are a Climate Alliance Partner As a Climate Alliance partner, we make out contribution to climate change and are committed to achieving the Climate Alliance goal, by halving our CO 2 emissions % other eco-energy 2.59 % oil and its products 3.18 % natural gas 3.53 % solid or liquid biomass 4.23 % wind energy % water power 6 Gatic Sales & Technical Tel:

7 Filcoten Overview Strong but gentle on the environment. French VOC emissions certificate Institute of Building Biology Rosenheim Temperature, frost and UVresistant Since Filcoten channels are made of cementbonded fibre composites, they react to changes in temperature in the same way as the surrounding concrete bedding. This achieves a monolithic unit and a long service life for the channel system. Resistance to frost and de-icing salt down to 40 o has been demonstrated (taking into account EN1433). Improved impact stability The high impact stability of Filcoten ensures greater safety when handling and installing the channels. Lower transport costs, swifter installation Depending on the type of channel, Filcoten channels are up to 70 % lighter than conventional concrete channels. This conserves resources and decreases the proportional CO 2 emissions. The lower weight also facilitates faster installation on site. 100 % recyclable Filcoten is free from artificial resins and solvents. The manufacturing and processing focus is on the conservation of resources. Filcoten channel bodies have been bio constructively tested and are recommended on this basis by the IBR (Institute for Biology, Rosenheim GmbH). Better still, Filcoten is 100 % recyclable. Non-flammable While plastics are flammable, the purely mineral mix of materials in our manufacturing process means that Filcoten does not have a fire load. High compressive strength The cement-bonded material with a high proportion of fibres enables thin-walled channels with a particularly high compressive strength. The particularly flat inner surface of Filcoten channels achieves the best flow characteristics and self-cleaning effect. Gatic Sales & Technical Tel:

22 Filcoten Green System green Filcoten green filters organic and inorganic impurities out of rainwater before they re-enter the water cycle through the floor drainage or gullies. You can find details about construction and how it all works on the next page. Grates A selection of galvanised steel mesh gratings and ductile iron gratings are available. The gratings are available with bolted locking or with fix self-locking system. Adapter front cap This separation cap is the final part in the substrate area of the channel, therefore preventing the substrate from reaching the sump unit. End cap For waterproof closure of the channel. Available with horizontal outlet connection or closed endcap. Vertical outlet For outlet connection without sump unit. Advantages at a glance Sustainable protection for groundwater and soil Holds back 99% of heavy metals, organic substances and particles Oil residues are broken down biologically Reduces pollutant load for sewage plant Up to 20 years service life Suited to be integrate in sewage water network Resilient up to class F900kN Can be inspected and cleaned Low investment and follow-up costs Easy maintenance and replacement of the substrate agent 22 Gatic Sales & Technical Tel:

23 Filcoten Green System The technology behind it 1) Mesh grates made of galvanised steel or ductile iron longitudinal bar grates NW 300, resilient up to class E 600 kn The rainwater polluted with fine and coarse dirt comes into contact with the channel for the first time. Oversized dirt particles are mechanically stopped by the grate. 2) Reservoir for surface water If there is heavy rainfall, excess surface water can be collected here and is only fed into the cleaning system gradually. 3) Coarse dirt sedimentation level Coarse dirt which makes it through the grate is mechanically held back by this sedimentation unit. The hydraulically optimised overflow of the sedimentation level sits in a central location, achieving an optimal, even distribution of the feed-in medium above the substrate zone. The level of effectiveness is increased considerably. 4) First substrate layer: ENREGIS/Cleancalith A This natural mineral mixture filters organic dirt loads from the polluted rainwater. It reduces the proportion of particulate, particle-bonded and dissolved substances through filtration, absorption, degradation, precipitation and complexation. 5) Second substrate layer: ENREGIS/Cleancalith B Heavy metals and other inorganic compounds are removed or held back by this synthetic granulate. It is environmentally sound to an unlimited extend. 6) Hydraulic separating fabric This material holds residual fine substances back, preventing them from getting through the underlying spacers in the flow area. 7) Trapezoidal spacers These separate the substrate zone from the flow area, thereby creating a permanently free cross section in the channel. 8) Extremely stable channel bodies made of Filcoten The unique material Filcoten is both extremely impact resistant and environmentally friendly.
