An Innovative Solution
Flood Protection and Water Storage
JUMBO BLOCK® street retention offers a revolutionary approach to managing rainwater beneath our roads. This technology not only provides effective flood protection but also supports water storage and reuse.
Flexible and Adaptable
The JUMBO BLOCK® system is designed for flexibility and adaptability, making it suitable for deployment in a wide range of areas and conditions, including historic old towns.
Adapting to Climate Change
Protect Your Infrastructure
Safeguard your buildings and urban infrastructure from rainwater flooding with our unlimited retention volume system. Take proactive measures to reduce erosion, minimize environmental impacts, and preserve valuable water resources, all while enhancing water quality.
Water Storage
Make use of stored rainwater to reduce water consumption and efficiently irrigate green spaces and plants, all while lowering costs associated with rainwater drainage.
Transforming Rainwater from a Problem into a Valuable Resource
Flood Protection and Water Storage
Large-volume hollow blocks beneath the road surface effectively store or infiltrate rainwater, reducing flood risks and ensuring sustainable environmental protection.
Intelligent Water Management
IoT water level sensors offer real-time data on water levels, turning the system into an intelligent flood protection tool and a crucial resource for informed water management decisions.
Sustainable Irrigation
Stored rainwater can be repurposed for irrigating green spaces or other uses, promoting sustainable water practices.
JUMBO BLOCK® Solution
JUMBO BLOCK® Components
1️⃣ JUMBO BLOCK®
The core of the system – a massive, hollow, load-bearing concrete module (2.5 m x 2.5 m x 2.5 m) with an impressive capacity to support up to 792 tonnes. This block is designed for underground installation, forming the backbone of a modular and scalable retention system.
2️⃣ Sedimentation and Filtration Inside the Block
The built-in filtration system captures sediments and impurities within the JUMBO BLOCK® itself. This design prevents clogging and extends the lifespan of the system, while maintaining a continuous water flow.
3️⃣ Heavy-Duty Cover Plate
The cover plate provides an ultra-strong, load-bearing surface above the JUMBO BLOCK®. It enables heavy-duty applications like roads, airport runways, and industrial sites, while ensuring surface stability and protecting the system below.
A System of strength
4️⃣ Side Plate
Side plates are installed to enclose the JUMBO BLOCK® modules on the sides, preventing lateral water movement and ensuring system integrity. They help stabilize the overall structure and protect against shifting forces.
5️⃣ Base Plate
The base plate provides a stable foundation for each JUMBO BLOCK®, distributing the weight evenly and creating a secure, level base. This feature is essential for ensuring structural stability and longevity.
6️⃣ Sealing System
The sealing systems for JUMBO BLOCK® provide durable, waterproof solutions for module connections. Using high-performance adhesives and sealants, they securely seal joints and connections, preventing water loss and optimizing retention efficiency. Their flexible, durable materials ensure long-term functionality under varying conditions.
