ECA® – Expanded Clay Aggregate for Stormwater Control delivers remarkable performance through its advanced infiltration media and robust structural design. By reimagining conventional materials, we provide operators and decision-makers with a reliable, eco‐friendly alternative that addresses operational shortcomings while boosting long-term sustainability.

Creating Resilient Barriers for Sustainable Ecosystems

Lagoon systems face intense pressures from environmental factors such as UV exposure, temperature variations, and chemical interactions. Conventional materials may deteriorate quickly, leading to increased operational costs and compromised water quality. ECA® – Expanded Clay Aggregate offers a transformative approach through its superior resistance to environmental wear and tear.

Lagoon linings built with ECA® are designed to enhance structural stability and promote efficient water retention, which, in turn, supports the natural balance of aquatic ecosystems. The material’s lightweight nature facilitates easier handling during installation, reducing labor costs and time delays.

Key Advantages

• Extended Service Life: Thanks to its robust mechanical properties, such as compressive strength and tensile strength, ECA® withstands prolonged use without significant deterioration.
• Cost Efficiency: By lowering maintenance requirements and reducing the need for frequent replacements, ECA® offers significant long-term savings.
• Environmental Harmony: Engineered with sustainability in mind, our product supports green initiatives and aligns with modern eco-friendly construction standards.

Precision Filtration for Cleaner Water Systems

Sediment accumulation in water systems is a frequent obstacle in achieving efficient water management. The challenge of maintaining clean, sediment-free water often results in elevated maintenance costs and operational inefficiencies. ECA® – Expanded Clay Aggregate addresses these issues by offering a specialized solution designed for superior sediment control.

The material’s controlled porosity facilitates targeted sediment capture while promoting excellent water flow. This balance is critical for applications where maintaining water clarity and reducing sediment load are paramount.

Its high specific surface area enhances microbial colonization, which can play a role in breaking down organic contaminants, further contributing to overall water quality.

Porosity: The measure of void spaces in a material, which determines its ability to hold water or air. ECA®’s porosity ensures optimal filtration without compromising structural integrity.

By implementing ECA® in sediment control systems, operators can significantly reduce maintenance frequency and improve overall system performance. The inherent mechanical strength including high compressive and shear strength ensures that the material maintains its filtration capabilities under high load conditions.

Key Advantages

• Optimized Water Flow: The unique structure of ECA® supports efficient water movement, reducing the risk of blockages and ensuring consistent performance.
• Lower Operational Costs: The durability and low-maintenance characteristics of ECA® help mitigate the expenses associated with traditional sediment control methods.
• Sustainable Practices: By improving water quality and reducing waste, ECA® supports green building guidelines and eco-friendly water management strategies.

Every aspect of ECA® – Expanded Clay Aggregate has been rigorously tested to ensure it meets the highest industry standards. Below are some of the most compelling technical attributes:

Bulk Density – This term describes the mass of the material per unit volume. In practical terms, it affects the ease of handling and the structural support provided by ECA® in various applications.
