SOMTUBE - Model FTB -Drainage System

The DRAINTUBE FTB drainage system is engineered for effective water management at the subformation level beneath concrete slabs, offering an alternative to conventional subbases made from granular materials and angled drains. This system is capable of continuous operation within the groundwater table, necessitating integration with a network of drainage trenches and discharge points. The product is notable for its polyethylene film which allows direct slab pouring without geotextile clogging issues from concrete laitance. The system's reliability is underscored by technical validation from CCFAT and is set for branding consolidation in 2024, when it will replace the SOMTUBE FTB and DRAINTUBE FTP line. Renowned for its use in large projects like the Philharmonie de Paris, the DRAINTUBE FTB efficiently manages stormwater runoff, minimizing waterproofing contact and reducing ground cracking risks, cementing its role in protecting and draining complex constructions and terrains.
