Visqueen Gas Vent Mat is a geocomposite void former comprising a cuspated high density polyethylene (HDPE) core bonded to a non-woven polypropylene geotextile filter membrane. Visqueen Gas Vent Mat is 25mm thick and supplied in rolls 900mm x 50m.
Visqueen Gas Vent Mat is designed to create a 25mm deep void beneath reinforced concrete ground floor slabs. Hazardous ground gases or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are collected within the void and dispersed to atmosphere via a designed arrangement of Visqueen connectors and venting components, collectively managing and effectively diluting the collected gases.
Where high gas concentrations have been recorded the vent mat can be laid in a blanket format with the individual mats being butted together. Where the gas concentrations are low or where pressure relief is required the vent mat can be laid in a strip format with the mat being laid at predetermined spacings.
