Geoplast's Defender contributed to building of Kellerei Bozen's 20 000 square meter headquarters and Italy's first Climate House certified winery by protecting the waterproofing layer of the winery's extensive underground production area against backfill pressure and hydrostatic loads.
Our system replaced traditional 20cm gravel drainage layers with 7cm recycled plastic panel, reducing backfill by 65%. In addition it also provided the project with :
• A ventilated, drained cavity that prevents moisture build-up on the basement walls,
• Even distribution of soil pressure, protecting the waterproofing membrane,
• Long-term structural durability essential for stable, controlled production and underground storage.
