Boasting an impressive 40-tonne per square metre load-bearing capacity, this Polypipe Polystorm Soakaway and Attenuation Crate is designed for lightly trafficked and loaded areas, offering a reliable solution for various applications. This standard Polystorm cellular unit is engineered for areas with light to moderate loading, making it an ideal choice for SUS-compliant attenuation or soakaway systems.
This versatile solution is not only robust but also lightweight with unique rounded corners, ensuring ease of handling, reducing the risk of punctures to membranes and offering excellent Health and Safety and installation benefits. With an impressive 95% void ratio, it excels at water capture and retention and minimises excavation and disposal costs.
What sets this Polystorm Crate apart is its efficient interlocking mechanism. It easily combines with other crates to form a flexible tank beneath a hard surface, effectively storing water redirected from building guttering and surface drains. Its modular design allows specifiers and contractors to create a bespoke subsurface water storage system tailored to the unique demands of their project. This makes it perfect for use in restricted areas, narrow strips or shallow excavation systems.
Each Polystorm unit includes four clips and two shear connectors for straightforward installation.

Question:
Hi, we have some of your Ploystorm PSM1 soakaway creates which we used on a previous job 1000mm x 500mm x 400mm. I'm wondering if we spilt the create in half so it measure's 200mm deep, would we lose any of it's integrity?
Answer:
The Polypipe Polystorm Soakaway and Attenuation Crate is designed to maintain its integrity at its specified dimensions of 1000mm x 500mm x 400mm. Altering its size by splitting it could potentially impact its load bearing capacity and overall performance. It's important to remember that these crates have a load bearing strength of 40 tonnes and are designed for light to moderate loading areas. Any modification to the original design could compromise these specifications. If you're looking for a shallower solution, I'd recommend exploring other products within our Underground Drainage category that may better suit your requirements.
