The ideal basic raw material for a water buffer or infiltration basin is a package of expanded clay aggregates, packed in an open or closed geotextile. The open spaces in and between the grains ensure a perfect drainage. Furthermore, Argex grains can be blown by a silo truck over a distance of up to 100 m. So, perfect for a quick and easy placement on sites with limited accessibility and/or drivability.
A water buffer or water infiltration basin with Argex grains retains the water and slows down the drain at the same time. A multitude of opportunities opens up when choosing Argex. The benefits of the Argex aqua solutions are mainly due to its hollow cavities: 45% of hollow cavity between pellets and 43% inside the grains. And it doesn’t end there. Our product is also an economical one. Rapid processing with silo trucks, full use of construction pit, flexible design, unlimited lifespan and reusability of the product make Argex the qualitative and most cost-effective solution for you as a contractor or builder.
Besides expensive water filters, which also consume a lot of energy, the water of your swimming pond can be purified using Argex aggregates. Our clay grain is a 100% natural product and it’s inert, rot-free and very sustainable. Ideal for biological filtration of a swimming pond or the individual processing of your wastewater.
Purifying wastewater under a parking space with the Phyto parking lot. The Phyto parking lot is a natural wastewater treatment, based on the technique of aerated reed lands. One parking space (2,50 x 5,00 m) can treat the waste water of 16 people. Wherever parking space is provided, waste water can be purified under each parking spot, which makes connection to the sewerage unnecessary. This can be managed via Rietland, in which Argex is used.

The Phyto air consists of a basin filled with expanded clay granules (Argex) that is irrigated with wastewater. At the bottom of the basin, aeration pipes bring air into the wastewater and cause mixture in the system. At the end of the basin, the purified waste water is collected through a drain pipe that terminates in an overflow pit. The whole is sealed from the substrate by means of a strong foil.
The Phyto air is ideal for medium-sized projects such as residential areas or groups of homes, business parks, hotels, nursing homes, hospitals, schools and companies. Thanks to the high purification efficiency, the Phyto air system can be scaled up to more than 1000IE.
Advantages of the Phyto air
A compact, prefabricated helophyte filter with a size of only 3 m³ for private individuals. It is a prefab system, pre-assembled in concrete boxes. Plug-and-play placement. For bigger projects, the new innovation is worth the view. This via Rietland in collaboration with Argex.
