• Installs easily in reinforced walls. NEW Drainage Matte eliminates the need for pea gravel. Lightweight & compact for easy shipping, handling, and storage. 40% recycled polypropylene can help your project qualify for LEED certification.
Stronger than flashing, and it installs in a flash.
Drop Blok-Flash pans onto each 1st course block, with Weep Spouts protruding.
Grout according to instructions. then lay 2nd course.
Press a lightweight, polyester-mesh Drainage Matte into each cavity of 2nd course block to capture mortar/grout droppings. (No pea gravel.)
