The Polystorm range of modular cell systems are designed with a 95% void ratio to retain large volumes of water run-off. The Polystorm cells can be designed and built to a specific size to a total void volume requirement dependant upon the water run-off volumes required on a particular project (i.e. car park, road or building).
The Polystorm range of water storage cells are structurally strong, individual modular cells which can be built up to form a structure of any shape or size. The structure is wrapped in a non-permeable, geomembrane which can receive rainwater collected from the roof gutter system or surface drains and either releases the water within set discharge limits (attenuation) or, where soil conditions allow, be wrapped in a permeable geotextile and slowly release the water back into the surrounding soil (soakaway).
Polystorm Lite has been specifically designed for non-trafficked applications. With a 20 tonne per square metre compressive strength it will however take general maintenance vehicles such as grass cutters. Polystorm Lite can be used for both attenuation and soakaway applications. The modular structure receives rainwater collected from roofs or surface drains ready to release within a set drainage limit. Polystorm Lite can be used typically for landscaped areas, pedestrian or public open spaces such as underneath playgrounds.

Polystorm features individual modular cells that can be built up to form a load-bearing tank structure of any shape or size to receive rainwater collected from the gutter system or surface drains ready to release within a set discharge limit. Polystorm has a 40 tonne per square metre compressive strength and is ideally suited for lightly trafficked and loaded applications. Polystorm can be used for both attenuation and soakaway applications and typically for housing developments, small car parks and light commercial developments.
