  • Shockwave Crush-Resistant Drainage Board
  • Source: REMODELING Magazine 4/4/2007
  • Mar-flex Mar-flex. Designed to protect walls during backfill operations, Shockwave crush-resistant drainage board acts as a powerful shock absorber when compressed. Closed-cell, cross-linked polyethylene foam construction absorbs pressure and bounces back to its original configuration after an impact, maintaining the ability to effectively drain water. Shockwave reduces the load factor on below-grade walls and is specially engineered for flexibility, so it expands and contracts during freeze-thaw cycles. Available in 3-foot-by-4-foot sheets. 800.498.1411. More

Styrofoam Blueguard can be used in areas with very heavy termite infestation in below-grade applications, the company says. The product also provides a high R-value and moisture resistance. 866-583-2583. More
