MicroDrain ®
THE INDUSTRY-LEADING POND CONTAINMENT AND DRAINAGE SOLUTION
AGRU America ’ s MicroDrain can be manufactured with either highdensity polyethylene ( HDPE ) or linear low-density polyethylene ( LLDPE ). MicroDrain is best suited for single- or double-lined projects such as waste ponds , lagoons , and basins where containment and leak detection are crucial . MicroDrain eliminates the need for a separate geonet drainage layer , providing cost savings and improving performance .
MicroDrain features a consistent drainage stud pattern and spacing , which gives excellent flow rates and reliable drain capacity . The stud pattern also reduces the potential for chemical and biological clogging . MicroDrain also features an integrated bottom-facing MicroSpike surface with asperity heights above 20 mils .
