ABC-01
Infiltrate
Stormwater drawdown and infiltration retrofit media.
What it does
ABC-01 Infiltrate is engineered for bioretention, infiltration trenches, and stormwater drawdown retrofits. High surface area in granular formats keeps hydraulic conductivity within design ranges while supporting the microbial activity that drives pollutant removal.
What it does
- Restores infiltration rate in failing bioretention cells
- Holds flow within design ranges across the life of the system
- Binds dissolved metals and hydrocarbons at the media interface
Where it fits
- Bioretention and rain gardens
- Infiltration trenches and dry wells
- Subsurface gravel-wetland retrofits
- Stormwater BMP rehabilitation
