Preventing Future Landslips
#Geotextiles are proven to be effective at preventing landslides by strengthening soil and reducing the chances of erosion. The range of geotextiles fabrics available from Wallbarn, which are essentially permeable fabric, are less expensive and a more sustainable alternative than retention walls.

High Tensile Strength
Our PPST #geotextile fabric has very high tensile strength properties, meaning the fabric can be pulled laterally without breaking, so the fibres stay in the same place and do not stretch / tear, meaning consistent drainage is maintained throughout the fabric sheet and no weak spots appear. It is used as a soil stabilisation fabric in rail and road embankments, stopping landslips on steep slopes to a great degree.

Finding a Viable Solution
Our m-Tray green roofs can “attenuate” (absorb) up to 50% of rainwater on flat roofs, and also slow down the initial deluge. By taking pout 50% of the rainfall and then slowing down both the start of drainage water leaving the roof / podium deck and entering the drainage pipes, and making that flow slower and over a longer time period. This puts a lot less pressure on the (often Victorian) drainage system.

Why Use Green Walls?
Green walls create a natural façade of living plants on vertical structures. They add beauty, nature and ecological benefit to the built-up environment.

Green Roof Supplies
Green roofs are living structures and as such need attention throughout their lifespan. Some vegetation types such a sedum are planted as they require less maintenance than grass roofs for example. However, regular attention to soil moisture and feed levels as well as the removal of weeds is essential to maintain optimum performance.

Excellent Levels of Durability
Our #decking support pads act as a guide when laying decking slabs, ensuring that they are left in a uniform position guaranteeing an attractive finish. By suspending the decking tiles, they also offer the hugely positive benefit of ensuring water is able to run away from underneath the tiles. They will also help to prevent the build-up of dirt and other material between the slabs.

Achieving Attractive Finishes
More roof and balcony designs incorporate a completely flat upper surface in order to utilise them more effectively as leisure areas. More attractive paving with spirit-level-flat finishes can be achieved using a much larger variety of different stone and slab shapes using our ASP supports.
