Description

Megaflo Green Socked Slotted Drain Pipe 

Efficient and Sustainable Subsurface Drainage Solutions

Megaflo® Green is a high-performance, flat-shaped panel drainage system designed for quick and effective subsurface drainage across various infrastructure projects. Made from 100% recycled HDPE, Megaflo Green is wrapped in Bidim® Green non-woven geotextile, preventing soil migration into the drainage system and ensuring long-term reliability.

 

Key Differences Between Megaflo Green and Megaflo Green 200:

Megaflo Green:

  • A general-purpose, flat-shaped panel drainage system made from recycled HDPE material.
  • Known for rapid drainage, high compressive strength, and easy installation.
  • Suitable for a wide range of infrastructure applications, such as roads, retaining walls, tunnels, and sports fields.

 

Megaflo Green 200:

  • A specific variant designed for even higher performance under extreme conditions.
  • Drains water up to 1.6 times faster than standard round agi pipe.
  • Offers cost savings in installation and delivery.
  • Complies with VicRoads Pavement Drain specifications, making it suitable for stringent infrastructure requirements.

 

Why Choose Megaflo Green?

  • Rapid Water Removal: With its unique ribbed profile and wide, flat shape, Megaflo Green collects and removes water up to 4.9 times faster than conventional round pipes.
  • Cost-Effective Installation: The slim 40mm profile allows for quicker, more affordable installation. You can install it vertically or horizontally, even without trench excavation.
  • Durable and Strong: Megaflo Green’s structural rigidity provides high compressive strength under traffic loads. This makes it ideal for roads, retaining walls, and sports fields.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Made from 100% recycled HDPE, Megaflo Green supports sustainable construction practices by reducing carbon emissions and energy use.

 

Megaflo Green Ultra:

  • Heavy-Duty Performance: Megaflo Green Ultra is a heavier grade variant, offering greater crush resistance for extreme high fill and high load applications without compromising performance.

 

Applications

Megaflo Green, including the 200 and Ultra variants, excels in several applications:

  • Roadside Drainage: Effectively removes water from road edges, helping reduce potential damage and maintenance costs.
  • Retaining Walls: Provides reliable drainage to prevent water pressure buildup and structural damage.
  • Sports Fields: Ensures quick water removal, keeping surfaces playable and safe even after heavy rainfall.
  • Tunnels & Embankments: Offers stability and protection against water-induced damage in specialized construction projects.
  • Mining & Heavy Load Areas: Particularly suited for areas with extreme loads, ensuring consistent drainage and structural integrity.

 

Sustainability with Megaflo Green

Megaflo Green is produced using 100% locally sourced, recycled HDPE. This significantly reduces environmental impact. By choosing Megaflo Green, you contribute to sustainable infrastructure development, which aligns with the goals of the Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC).

1. The compressive strength of Megaflo® Green should be considered in conjunction with the granular drainage medium. Geofabrics engaged an external consultant to perform a Finite Element Analysis which established that under extreme loads, the effective stress imposed on a Megaflo® Green panel due to it’s stiffness and profile is significantly reduced through soil arching of the granular cover.
2. Geofabrics has also conducted compressive testing in a purpose made crush test rig to show Megaflo® Green can withstand extreme loads of up to 1580kPa due to the soil arching
effect of the granular fill.
