Geosynthetics can act as a drain to carry fluid through less permeable soils. Ideal for use in subsoil drainage systems, can be used to dissipate pore water pressures at the base of road and railway embankments, sports fields and behind retaining walls. Facilitates surface water runoff.
Megaflo® Green is a wide and flat-shaped panel drainage system that provides the dimensional stability and field-proven structural strength for quick and effective sub-surface drainage. It is made from recycled HDPE material and is covered or wrapped with our Bidim® Green non-woven geotextile which helps to prevent soil migration into the drainage system.
Megaflo Green offers the ability to collect and remove water rapidly due to its unique shape and ribbed profile. Its slim 40mm wide profile permits faster and more cost-effective installation.
Our Megaflo Green range is made from 100% locally sourced, recycled HDPE plastic. Production currently uses between 500 - 1,000 tonnes of Australian sourced recycled materials every year.
WHY CHOOSE MEGAFLO GREEN?
In infrastructure development projects such as roads, retaining walls, tunnels and sports field applications, Megaflo Green offers superior drainage properties and provides:
- Up to 4.9 times faster water drainage compared to conventional 100mm round agi pipe due to its ability to effectively remove excess water with its increased in-take slot distribution
- Saves up to 50% installation compared to conventional 100mm round agi pipe
- Can be installed vertically or horizontally with or without the need to excavate a trench
- Higher compressive strength under traffic loads due to its structural rigidity
- Easy storage and handling on delivery pallets that has the potential to save up to 35% on delivery costs, reduce storage space and improve on-site safety
- Made in Australia from HDPE recycled milk bottles
- Range of connection fittings available from Geofabrics, including stormwater connectors
Megaflo Green Ultra is a heavier grade offering greater crush resistance for extreme high fill, high load applications without compromising any of its proven performance.
WHY CHOOSE MEGAFLO GREEN 200?
- Compared to round pipe, saves costs by up to 30%; up to 35% in delivery; and up to 50% in installation
- Complies with VicRoads Pavement Drain specifications and approved for use by road authorities
- Up to 1.6 times faster water drainage compared to Class 1000/SN20 round pipe, due to its ability to effectively remove excess water with its superior design and increased in-take slot distribution
- Made in Australia from HDPE recycled milk bottles, meeting the Victorian Government’s Local Content and Recycled First policies
- High compressive modulus and structural rigidity prevents deflection under normal service loads
- Superior stiffness improves both vertical and horizontal alignment, reducing turbidity which can lead to excess sediment buildup and reduced flow rates
- Unique design removes and drains water rapidly, making it an ideal solution for road edge drainage and retaining walls
- Range of connection fittings available from Geofabrics

APPLICATIONS
Subsoil Drainage
Megaflo Green is frequently installed to intercept subsurface water, assist in controlling ground water level and to capture surface water ingress in the pavement/fill layers. Megaflo Green can be supportive in improving soil moisture relationship by preserving ground water level beneath the paved surface. By maintaining moisture level, Megaflo Green also enables subgrade management with uniform strength and bearing capacity.
