Drainage and erosion control systems are essential for maintaining the long-term stability and performance of mining infrastructure by efficiently managing surface and subsurface water while protecting exposed soil surfaces from erosion. TechFab Drainage & Erosion Control Systems provide durable, reliable, and cost-effective solutions for mining projects operating under demanding environmental conditions.
Overview
Available Systems
Products
Drainage and erosion control systems are engineered geotechnical solutions designed to manage water flow, reduce hydrostatic pressure, and protect exposed soil surfaces from erosion. Their performance relies on the integration of efficient drainage, filtration, separation, and erosion protection systems to maintain long-term stability and functionality.
These systems are designed using established hydraulic and geotechnical engineering principles to control surface runoff, facilitate subsurface drainage, and minimise erosion caused by rainfall, seepage, and flowing water. They are widely adopted in mining projects for haul road drainage, waste dump slopes, overburden dumps, crusher platforms, stockyards, mine access roads, conveyor corridors, sediment control works, and mine rehabilitation projects.
TechFab offers comprehensive drainage and erosion control solutions incorporating high-performance drainage composites, geotextiles, geocells, and erosion control systems. The TechFab engineering team provides complete technical support, including drainage design, hydraulic assessment, erosion control planning, product selection, and installation guidance.
TechCell Geocell System
Three-dimensional cellular confinement system that stabilises surface soils, controls erosion, and improves slope performance by confining infill material. It enhances slope stability, minimises soil loss, and promotes vegetation establishment in mining applications.
Product Range
TCL 330, TCL 356, TCL 445
Typical Use
Slope surface stabilisation
TechGeo Mattress System
Multi-layer geosynthetic mattress with equidistant granular infill pockets, designed to provide flexible erosion protection and surface stabilisation for waste dump slopes, overburden dumps, mine drainage channels, sediment ponds, and mine embankments. The system conforms to ground irregularities and offers excellent chemical, biological, and ultraviolet resistance for long-term performance in mining environments.
Product Range
TGCM 105, 130
Typical Use
Channel and slope erosion protection
A TechFab Drainage & Erosion Control System is an engineered geotechnical solution that combines drainage, filtration, separation, and erosion protection technologies to effectively manage water movement, reduce hydrostatic pressure, and protect mining earth structures from erosion. The system enhances long-term stability, durability, and environmental performance.
TechCell Geocell is a three-dimensional high-density polyethylene (HDPE) cellular confinement system used for soil stabilization and erosion control. It confines infill material to improve slope stability, reduce surface erosion, and support vegetation establishment on waste dump slopes, mine embankments, and other mining earth structures.
TechGeo Mattress is a multi-layer geosynthetic erosion protection system comprising equidistant pockets filled with granular infill material. It provides flexible surface stabilization and erosion protection for waste dump slopes, overburden dumps, mine drainage channels, sediment ponds, and mine embankments while conforming to ground irregularities.
TechFab Drainage & Erosion Control Systems are suitable for waste dump slopes, overburden dumps, haul roads, mine drainage channels, sediment ponds, spillways, mine embankments, crusher platforms, stockyards, mine rehabilitation works, and other mining earth structures requiring effective water management and erosion protection.
