Unique drainage and water-retention membrane for use where a water reservoir is required for extensive green roofs of sedum, herbaceous plants, mosses or grass above decks and roofs.
Suitable for use as a water holding and drainage layer above a deck, flat roof or pitched roof where shallow planting is used to create an extensive green roof.
Unlike other products of this type, Newton 420 Reservoir
has a bonded geotextile that prevents intrusion of the soil into the water-holding cups during back-fill and compression. This results in a permanently larger volume reservoir than any other 20 mm deep green roof membrane.
When the water holding cups are full, the large drainage holes within the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) core allow water to easily pass through to the drainage layer below to prevent saturation and water logging of the green roof above.
Newton 420 Reservoir should continue over construction and movement joints and acts as a decoupling membrane preventing movement from the substrate transferring through to the surface finish. Consult manufacturer's literature for relevant surface preparation.
