Design detailing

Hydrorock planter design is tailored to the specific application, scale, planting requirements and climate of the specific project. Hydrorock natural aquifer blocks can be employed to both absorb rainwater (to avoid run off and local overflow) and to irrigate (slowly releasing water in dryer conditions).

Installation

Hydrorock natural aquifer blocks are lightweight, and easy to handle, configure and install. Planters can be designed to be fed by down pipe or to deal with direct exposure to rainfall, and/or to be topped up by hand in dry conditions. Whatever the scenario, installation is fast, simple and safe. Once installed, no routine maintenance is required.
