PALADISP infiltration tanks

When land is developed, rain that used to infiltrate into the subsoil ends up in the sewer. PALADISP tanks return part of the inflow to the ground: perforated PALADEX elements, laid in a bed of crushed stone, store the excess and infiltrate it into the groundwater, conveying to the network only the volumes it is able to receive.

The advantage of steel and polyethylene technology is that infiltration basins can be built directly beneath impermeable, trafficable surfaces. A filter can be placed at the bottom to retain solid particles and preserve the absorption capacity of the soil over time.

Infiltration systems reduce the risk of flooding during heavy rainfall, release water in a controlled manner into sewers and watercourses, recharge groundwater and purify the water under aerobic conditions. They enable environmentally sound urban development and sustainable, cost-effective stormwater management.

The PALADISP soakaway well is a slotted vertical element closed at the bottom, discharging water into medium-depth aquifers; the cover is a reinforced concrete slab that distributes loads onto the surrounding ground.
