Sealed surfaces disrupt the natural water cycle, with only 25% of rainwater infiltrating the ground, while the rest becomes runoff or evaporates.
Challenges
Increased Demand
Rising water use by households, industry, and agriculture is depleting groundwater levels.
Overuse for Irrigation
70% of pumped groundwater is used for irrigation, endangering reservoirs.
Unsustainable Practices
Drilling new wells isn't sustainable and harms ecosystems.
Rainwater infiltration is key to sustainable water use, supporting groundwater recharge, reducing flood risks, and improving soil and water quality.
The JUMBO BLOCK® rainwater harvesting and infiltration system is a modular solution designed to store and control the infiltration of rainwater.
The durable concrete modules can hold large volumes of water and are installed underground, preventing flooding and replenishing groundwater resources.
The system can function as a permeable or sealed reservoir, or as a combination of both, without limiting construction projects such as roads, squares, or buildings.
It is ideal for urban, industrial, and rural areas, offering an effective solution for water management and climate adaptation.
Irrigation and Domestic Use
Rainwater replaces drinking water, promoting sustainability.
Natural Cycle Restoration
Infiltration tanks help rainwater re-enter the natural cycle, improving groundwater quality.
Groundwater Recharge
Targeted infiltration prevents further depletion of groundwater levels.
Flood Risk Reduction
Infiltration reduces urban flood risks by managing runoff.
Soil Quality Improvement
Enhances soil moisture, supports plant growth, and reduces erosion.
