The Measure of Real Adaptation!
Every square meter of surface above a JUMBO BLOCK® stores up to 2,224 litres of water — directly below ground level.
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 depending on configuration and project size
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.

Sedimentation
JUMBO BLOCK® systems can be equipped with one or more sedimentation units that separate and retain solids from stormwater before it enters the storage volume.
The number and configuration of these units depend on the overall system size and application.
Filtration
The filtration units use multiple filter elements to remove pollutants such as organic compounds, heavy metals, mineral oils, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
They ensure that the stored water meets high environmental and quality standards.
Combined Sedimentation and Filtration System
In a combined setup, both processes are integrated into a single unit.
Rainwater passes through several stages — sedimentation, adsorption, filtration, and chemical precipitation — to achieve comprehensive purification.
Each installation is project-specific, adapted to the hydraulic and environmental requirements of the site.
