Henry DBR50 is water retention and drainage composites. These composites consist of a high strength dimpled water-retention polymeric core laminated with a top root barrier fabric and bottom protection fabric. The bottom fabric layer provides cushioning properties, offering protection to the underlying waterproofing membrane. Cups or 'dimples' in the core offer water storage capacity for vegetation layer between rain events, with overflow drainage once the 'dimple' storage capacity is reached. DBR50 and DBR100 composites are manufactured with both recycled and prime plastic polymers.
