Atlantis Flo-Cell®
The Original Drainage Cell since 1986
The Atlantis Flo-Cell® drainage system is an Atlantis flagship product invented and developed by the founder of the company in 1986. The product was developed to facilitate adding roof top gardens and planter boxes to building construction without adding heavy aggregate as drainage that placed severe limitations on the structural design of the building. The product provided a structurally strong structure, highly effective drainage and lightweight properties that was so successful that the drainage cell became an landscaping industry standard.

About Flo-Cell®Horizontal Drainage
Since the original release in 1986, Flo-Cell® set a benchmark for sub surface drainage. Flo-Cell® is the most advanced geo-composite for sub surface drainage and offers high compressive strength, lightweight construction, ease of installation and low cost compared to traditional drainage methods. More efficient than traditional drainage methods like blue steel/blue metal, Flo-Cell® provides a permanent and easy to install scaffold for drainage media to rest.
Long Life Durability
Atlantis Drainage Cell has excellent long term durability and is resistant to all ground chemicals. Flo-Cell is manufactured from selected quality recycled materials and under stringent quality control ensuring a high quality product that will not collapse or distort if used correctly. Our goal at Atlantis is to remain environmentally friendly whilst also solving water issues in a more efficient way.
Efficient Water Management
The Flo-Cell® removes only excess water, keeping a perfect amount of moisture on perch. The unique design of the Flo-Cell also features water retention cups that provide optimal moisture conditions for growing media.
Protects Building Structures
The Flo-Cell®, used in conjunction with Atlantis Geo-textile, which functions as a protective membrane, a filtration layer and for providing ventilation to concrete slabs which alleviates heat induced stress and cracking.
Atlantis Vertical Drainage
The Atlantis Vertical Drainage system has a high compressive strength, protects waterproof membranes, is economical, lightweight, easily transportable, easy to install and is a permanent and is a highly efficient vertical drainage. The system is perfect for controlling water seepage, ideal for underground car parks, basements, retaining walls, seepage cutoff trenches and Hydrostatic Pressure Relief
Our Flo-Wall product is a durable wall drain which solves many existing problems in modern architecture.
