Enkadrain® CK

Enkadrain CK is a multifunctional geocomposite with a cavity-rich core featuring on one side either a PVC layer or coated filter, and on the other side a nonwoven fleece. Enkadrain CK is developed for a range of specialist applications, for instance tunneling and complex formwork.

Drainage

Enkadrain CK is used as a laitance tight, protective drainage layer between existing structures, new structure walls and in tunnels. Thanks to its flexibility it easily adapts to the most complex geometries. Enkadrain CK is suitable for drainage at great depth.

Lost shuttering

When used as lost shuttering, the PVC layer or the coated nonwoven layer on Enkadrain CK will prevent moisture from entering the new building structure. The concrete can be applied directly, without any loss of space.

Vibration damping

Enkadrain CK decouples or dampens structure- or soil-borne vibrations that can be caused by various sources such as road and rail traffic, construction operations, transmissions between neighbouring buildings or machinery and power plants. Enkadrain CK provides an effective and cost efficient solution for vibrations that would otherwise result in structural damage or negative environmental impact.

Technical details

Enkadrain CK is a multifunctional geocomposite with a cavity-rich core featuring on one side either a PVC layer or coated filter, and on the other side a protective fleece. Its core comprises looped polyamide filaments that are fused together where they cross. Both the PVC layer and the nonwoven filter extend 10 cm beyond the core on opposite sides. This ensures that the joint is covered when lanes of Enkadrain CK are laid adjacent to one another. Enkadrain CK has a roll width of 1 m.
