Leading research by the CSIRO, in collaboration with the University of Toronto, has uncovered insights into the accumulation of plastic waste on the ocean floor – with estimates of up to 11 million tonnes of plastic pollution residing in these deep-sea reservoirs. The study was based on data from remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and reveals

Yes. Our stormwater detention range, including MegaVault, AtlanVault, AtlanCube, and AtlanChamber, can be custom-installed with liners and sealants to retain stormwater for reuse applications. Stormwater detention systems temporarily store stormwater to slow incoming flows and prevent flooding. Stormwater harvesting involves storing this water over longer periods for on-site use, such as irrigation, toilet flushing, gardening,
Can stormwater detention tanks be used for stormwater harvesting? Read More »
On-site Stormwater Detention (OSD) tanks are stormwater management systems that temporarily store excess surface runoff during storms and heavy rainfall. By slowing these incoming flows, they can be released slowly to drainage or infiltration zones, which prevents downstream assets, property, and environments from being overwhelmed by excess stormwater. Key benefits of these systems

Construction efficiency, resiliency to poor weather, design flexibility, and faster installation are all valued benefits of modular precast concrete tanks. Modular precast detention tanks and cast-in-situ tanks are both concrete-based alternatives for on-site stormwater detention (OSD). These systems manage incoming stormwater flows and temporarily store them to prevent local flooding. The key point of difference
What are the benefits of modular precast concrete OSD tanks vs. cast-in-situ tanks? Read More »
Underground detention assets provide many tangible benefits to developers, stakeholders, and the local community. Installed beneath the surface of your project, these types of OSD (On-site Stormwater Detention) systems are designed to meet the footprint constraints of modern development and conserve developable land. The benefits of subsurface OSD solutions include – Efficient land use Reduced
Why choose an underground OSD tank? Read More »
Yes, stormwater detention assets are compatible with stormwater treatment assets to create solutions that effectively manage both water quality and water quantity. Surface runoff is the rainfall that runs off the ground because the land is unable to soak it during storm events. On-site Stormwater Detention (OSD tanks) manage this volume of water and provide

Project efficiencies across freight, assembly and installation are improved by modules with high storage capacity. Each geocellular system has different storage capacity per module – with larger modules needing less modules for equivalent amounts of storage volume. Module volume for common systems include – System Litres per module AtlanCube 1,000 Atlantis Flo-Tank 119 Rainsmart Ellipse
What is the volume provided by each geocellular tank module? Read More »
Installation efficiency is aided by larger module sizes with less components. By increasing the footprint of each module, more cubic metres of storage can be installed with less total handling, assembly and on-site labour. Larger modules with fewer components lead to reductions in the complexity of assembly across the entire tank volume – effectively scaling
