Material Technology
Throughout each POREX Underdrain Plate runs an intricate network of open-celled, omni-directional pores which gives the media consistency throughout the plate which provides a combination of filtering capability and structural strength.
Rigid, Omni-Directional Pore Structure
- High Performance Ratings
- Narrow Pore Size Distribution
- Thermally Bonded
- Excellent Chemical and Thermal Compatibility

- Overlapping edges (for leak free installations)
- Uniform distribution of back flush (to increase backash efficiency)
- High strength
- UV resistant
- Long system life
- Easy to install using multiple fasteners
- NSF-61 material certified for drinking water applications
