1 ESTABLISHED IN 1986 Water Management Solutions for Landscaping Rainwater Harvesting Permeable Paving Turf Stabilisation Drainage 1

2 A Brief History... First Original Drainage Cell Tank Module (Aqua Cube ) The Original Since 1986 At Atlantis, we re committed to providing solutions for a sustainable future. THE DAILY TELEGRAPH, July 1987 The green city concept is the reason why Atlantis exists as a company today. Our vision is to build green cities that provide a sink for carbon, cool cities, beautify the urban landscape and clean, filter and reuse water through natural infiltration. We have offices and partners around the world and our team of environmental engineers, landscape architects and biologists have years of collective experience in the field. 2

6 Rainwater Harvesting Garden Solutions Why Use Atlantis Rainwater Tanks? Clean Water Storage Atlantis tank is pre filtered. Inside the tank water is kept at optimum conditions by promoting aerobic activity within the tank. This prevents stagnation and growth of unhealthy anaerobic bacterias. Capture water from your roof garden or driveway Atlantis modular tanks can be arranged in any size and shape under ground. The tank is filled by infiltration, ensuring purity in water. Unlimited Capacity - Can be constructed to hold any volume of required water. Use of Valuable Space - Are installed underground preserving the look of your home & garden and provides more usable ground area and enhanced aesthetic setting compared to above ground concrete or plastic tanks. Benefits Quick Installation - Reduce site access delays. Lightweight - No cranes or lifting equipment required. Strong Structural Design - Suitable for design loads up to 10 t/m 2 Modular - Easily create any shape and size to suit site requirements. Maintenance Free Tank - All debris and sediment is removed by pre-filtration. Determinate Volume - One cubic metre of Flo-Tank Modules contain 950 litres of water. Cost Effective - Reduces excavation and disposal by two thirds compared with conventional soak wells. - Cost effective compared to concrete and other systems High Infiltration - 90% void surface area Easily Transportable - Can be supplied unassembled for delivery to remote areas. 6

8 Permeable Paving Benefits... UV Resistant The FLO-GRID permeable paver contains U.V stabalisers suitable for outdoor use. Flo-Grid Porous Paver Strong Design The FLO-GRID permeable paver can resist loads in excess of 120t/m 2. No Pits, Sumps or Pipes The FLO-GRID permeable paver used in combination with Atlantis Flo-Tank allows stormwater runoff to recharge the ground water system. Easy Installation The FLO-GRID permeable paver is as easy to install as a common paver. Reduced Maintenance The Atlantis systems require minimum maintenance ensuring long term intergrity of the system. The Flo-Grid permeable paver allows the infiltration of stormwater, directing stormwater to naturally infiltrate into the ground below, recharging natural aquifers or is caught into underlying Flo-Tank. A very functional backyard 8

9 Edge Drainage Footpaths Convert Your Stormwater Burden Into an Asset Flo-Grid TM permeable paver drains excess water from paved or concreted areas which can be channeled into storage tanks. The clean water collected can be made available for use by irrigation systems or allowed to recharge the natural aquifers. Access Driveways Footpaths Easily create permeable pathways and access lanes while reducing the impermeable footprint of the estate. Footpaths Create Heavy Duty Access Roads The Flo-Grid TM permeable paver is ideal for reinforcement of high access areas such as access driveways for construction sites. Our Flo-Grid TM paver can withstand the weight of heavy vehicles such as dumptrucks and excavators. Say goodbye to concrete pavements. The Flo-Grid TM permeable paver is ideal for driveways and footpaths. Compacted Gravel to 95% Tensar Net or similar Flo-Grid TM 50mm 330 mm 250mm Atlantis 30mm Flo-Cell 9

10 Turf Stabilisation Access Roads Turf Cell Footpaths Ideal to house and protects grass The Turf Cell reinforcement structure is the most effective product available for both horizontal and vertical root growth. Parking Bays Driveways Unlike concrete systems, the roots remain cool and grass growth thrives. Driving vehicles onto the grass has no effect on the protected roots. Aesthetically, the product allows the grass to fill in completely, creating a lush lawn with an invisible reinforcement structure. Applications The cells can be used in any situation where low to medium use parking surfaces, access roads and driveways are required. The cells can also be used for the construction of swales to collect rainwater and direct water to surface infiltration areas such as Atlantis sub surface Infiltration channels.

11 Gravel Stabilisation Gravel Cell Access Roads Access Roads Cost Benefits The sub-base required for cells is equal to or less than the sub-base required for concrete or bitumen. Elimination of the traditional stormwater system required by impermeable carpark installations provides an immediate cost saving when installing Turf Cell for the same application. Footpaths Gravel Cell reinforcement structure creates an attractive, durable hard surface suitable for light to medium loaded parking areas.

14 Planter Box PLANTER BOX DRAINAGE The Atlantis Flo-Cell is the ideal drainage medium for planter box applications. The Flo-Cell is lightweight, easy to use and is cost effective when compared to traditional drainage methods. Efficient Water Mangement Only excess water is removed, keeping a perfect amount of moisture on perch for optimal growing conditions. Cracking! Protects Building Structures The Flo-Cell functions as a protective membrane for waterproofing and provides ventilation for concrete slabs which alleviates heat induced stress and cracking. 1 Futhermore if the wall is cracked and no efficient drainage is present contamination from the soil such as salts and other corrosive elements will futher contribute to the deteriation of the wall integrity. Atlantis wall panels are the most effective method of venting and maintaining consistent temperature on the wall surface by creating a substaintial long term air pocket that will not crush over time. 2 Flo-Cell TM 3 Flo-Tank tank module Waterproof Membrane Perched Water Table Discharge Point 14

16 Wall Drainage / Wall Panels The Most Efficient Wall Drainage System Perfect for controlling water seepage! Perfect for underground car parks, basements, retaining walls and seepage cutoff trenches. Recommended Uses: Wall Panels are suitable for retaining walls, foundation walls, basements, underground carparks, bridge abutments, civil structures, tunnels and anywhere hydrostatic pressure relief is required. Benefits Protects Waterproof Membranes Install Wall Drainage Only Once Rigid Design Quality Australian Made Product High Performance Rapid Installation Maintains Structural Integrity of Wall Lightweight Easy To Use The Most Efficient Wall Drainage System Effectively Relieve Hydrostatic Pressure Waterproof Membrane Atlantis Flo-Cell TM Wall Panel pre-wrapped in drains Hydrostatic buildup. Flo-Pipe TM sub-surface drainage pipe collects drained water and channels it to discharge point. Free draining material ensures efficient drainage. Long Term Benefits Assured Integrity of Basement Walls Protection of Waterproof membrane Vertical Drainage Products Size Comparison Reduce Heat Induced Cracking. Temperature in soil can reach 20 0 C at 10cm below the surface and 10 0 C at 50cm below the surface. This can produce enormous tension and strain on basement walls which can lead to the cracking of both the waterproof membrane and the wall itself. Atlantis wall panels provide a structural cavity that creates a buffer between the wall and the backfill material which regulates the temperature. 30mm Panel (1.2m) 30mm Panel (1.8m) 30mm Panel (2.4m) 30mm Panel (1.2m 2 ) 52mm Panel (1.9m) Strip Filter Pipe (1.562m) 16

17 Save time & labour while getting the job done right the first time The product is ideal for shotcreting saving time and labour costs through rapid installation and thereby reducing labour requirements. The product is easily installed by one person and rigid enough to easily place and fix on the wall in seconds.
