Water basin Stolberg

This is a water basin in Germany where first, protective nonwoven 500 g/m² was laid, then 2,0 mm HDPE structured film. Next, 2 layers of TILTEX 9 were laid on top of the HDPE 2,0 mm structured film. Before installing all materials, the larger stones had to be removed from the slopes and basin bottom.

Then, rainwater was collected with a rainwater retention and settling basin. This prevented surface water from flowing out of the gravel works into the sewage system and all the stored water could be used in the summer.

The original concept was a classic reinforced concrete structure. The construction that has now been implemented, is more cost-effective and the installation was assembled in a considerably shorter time period.

The "geometry" of the pool was extremely demanding and difficult, but TILTEX is a "modular" product and can be adapted to the building-specific requirements and combined with different layers of non-woven fabric, type of cement and different combinations with foils and/or fabrics .
In this project TILTEX was laid with the fabric side up and thanks to this robust and resistant surface was secured against mechanical stress, such as mechanical cleaning of the pool.

TILTEX is a multi-functional solution, which offers various applications:
- Lining of ditches,
– Lining of reservoirs,
– Lining of slopes,
– Lining of trenches,
– Ground stabilisation,
– Slope stabilization,
– Lining of banks,
– Underground wire protection and many other applications.
