Overview:
Colbond Building Products
Colbond Building Products manufactures high-quality performance engineered building products used for subsurface drainage, intensive and extensive green roofs, roof underlayments, sound attenuation, and root reinforcement applications. Some of our trade names are:

Enkadrain® - Subsurface Drainage Composite
Enkasonic® - Sound Control Matting / Available through Maxxon Corporation (www.maxxoncorporation.com)
Enkamat® - Roof Underlayment and Root Reinforcement Matrix
Enkavent® - Radon Control Matting
EnkaRetain & Drain™ – Drainage Mat & Water Retention Composite for Green Roof Applications
Enkaturf Drain® - Athletic Field Drainage Mat.

What makes our products unique is our 95% open, entangled matrix structures and our ability to custom manufacture by heat-bonding, gluing, ultrasonic welding and stitching textiles, foils and paper creating some of the most innovative building products available in the market today. We now offer subsurface drainage products made from recycled polypropylene which contribute to LEED points, and have a strong presence in the North American green building products market with our environmentally friendly Enkadrain 3000R series drainage composites and our other green roof / roof garden products.

Our products promote a “healthy” building – allowing for free movement of air and water. When a building can breathe, there is less likelihood for trapped water. Colbond building products target the places where a designer wants a void – a “space” that makes the building function better by allowing moisture to evacuate, water to drain, and sound transmission to be eliminated. Depending on the application, our products offer the multiple benefits of ventilation, drainage, and sound attenuation – all-in-one product.

Colbond Building Products have proven performance and a history of successful installations. We have the data to back up our claims and offer products with performance guarantees. We partner with some of the most successful companies in the building products market to offer unique solutions for the best structure you can build.

We’re the thin line between comfort and catastrophe.™

These subsurface drainage composites consists of a post-industrial, recycled polypropylene core and a geocomposite fabric bonded to one or two sides. Designed to relieve hydrostatic pressure from soils abutting below grade structures, Enkadrain has proven and predictable flow rates unlike sand and gravel drains. Enkadrain offers many benefits that hard, plastic drains do not.

Green Roof Products

Colbond Building Products manufactures products used for drainage and root reinforcement in multi-layer green roof applications.

SpecWizard Specs



Enkadrain 3611
3811
Enkadrain 3000R Series made from post-industrial recycled polypropylene contributes to LEED points. The unique, three-dimensional core channels water away and reduces incidental moisture collecting on the structure. A durable, geotexile fabric is available on one or two sides of the core to retain soil particles and protect the waterproofing membrane from puncture. Enkadrain’s proven and predictable high flow rates and exceptional compression resistance make it suitable for substantial soil and construction vehicle loads. Enkadrain has been used for over 25 years under extensive and intensive green roofs around the world.

3211
New! EnkaRetain & Drain is a new Enkadrain product consisting of a 3000R Series Enkadrain with a super absorbent, water retention fabric bonded to one side. The 100% post consumer recycled nonwoven polyester fabric is designed to hold 10 to 12 times its weight in water helping plant roots stay hydrated longer. The recycled content of this unique composite make it an interesting and attractive product that contributes to LEED program points.

Enkamat
7010
Colbond Inc. <BR><BR>
click to enlarge
Enkamat is a three-dimensional nylon Turf Reinforcement Mat (TRM) made of polyamide (nylon) filaments joined at the intersections. Ninety-five percent of the matrix is open space, which supplements nature's own erosion control system by reinforcing the plant roots. As the roots grow, they become entwined within the Enkamat, making an extremely stable cover.

SpecWizard Specs

Roof Underlayments

Colbond offers a unique matrix product designed to extend the service life of a ballasted or metal roof by providing a space and plane for drainage and ventilation to occur.

Specs



Enkamat
7008 / 7010
Enkamat 7008 / 7010 is a roofing underlayment product used under any type of ballasted or metal roof types including zinc, copper, stainless steel, and aluminum. Less than a ˝ inch thick, this thin profile mat gives you sound control, drainage, and ventilation all in a single layer. The mat is made of continuous nylon filaments fused at their intersections — providing a 95% open structure that is flexible, yet strong enough to support the full weight of the roof.

Specs

Sound Control



Enkasonic
9110
Enkasonic Sound Control Matting is a 0.4" (10mm) thick composite of extruded nylon filaments that forms a three-dimensional core with a nonwoven fabric heat-bonded to its upper surface. Enkasonic's open structure creates a void in the floor's construction that breaks sound transmission between the ceiling-floor assembly.

Radon Control



Enkavent Since 1985 the Enkavent system has delivered proven protection from radon and hydrocarbon gases entering occupied structures by intercepting radon before it seeps into the basement, crawl space, or through the slab. It meets all requirements of floating slab construction and is adaptable to sump systems. This cost-effective radon control system is easy to install and can typically be installed in less than 4 hours in most residential applications.

Enkavent 6128 is a radon venting product consisting of a 0.8” thick nylon core of fused, entangled filaments with a geotextile heat-bonded to one side. 95% of the geomatrix is open airspace, which means radon has room to flow. Enkavent is also stiff. It can stand up to concrete without compressing, but its lightweight enough for easy handling.

Erosion Control

Enkamat anchors natural vegetation and can be used to re-engineer the land to enhance the natural cover's performance on designed steeper slopes or under high velocity and shear conditions.



Enkamat Profile Products LLC now distributes Enkamat Turf Reinforcement Mats throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Athletic Fields

Colbond manufactures various products that can be used to enhance natural and synthetic turf athletic fields and playgrounds.



EnkamatPlus
Colbond Inc. <BR><BR>

EnkamatPlus is a winning combination of strong and durable Enkamat teamed with a tough polyester geotextile to provide maximum sideline protection for your natural turf field. Capable of withstanding continuous pounding from the feet of athletes, coaches and spectators this innovative new product is perfect for multi-use athletic fields.



Enkaturf Drain A combination of natural turf and Enkamat, a permanent three-dimensional nylon matting that pioneered the concept of reinforcing natural vegetation. Roots lock into this resilient foundation, giving your turf unsurpassed mechanical stability with less root zone compaction. You get healthier, better looking turf with less maintenance.

Golf Course Products

To compliment our existing lines of erosion control and drainage products Colbond has developed a line of golf course enhancement products.



EnkaGolf Drain Enkagolf Drain is a thin profile subsurface strip drain used to remove water from bunkers, fairways, and greens. Using Enkagold Drain eliminates the need for a perforated drainage pipe and the associated ordeal of installing a larger diameter drain with surrounding aggregate. This 1" thick product minimizes disturbance to the course during retrofit.



EnkaShoreline EnkaShoreline reduces the need for rip-rap along the edges of lakes and ponds increasing the effective playable area of the green or fairway. It reduces piping of fine soil particles and reduces sediment-laden murky water along the perimeter of the lake or pond. EnkaShoreline also reduces erosion caused by wave action along the shore and increases soil stability.



EnkaTrap EnkaTrap is a structural separation component utilized within golf couse bunkers to provide confinement and separation of the sand layer from the gravel drainage layer. The inclusion of EnkaTrap within the bunker provides for exceptional drainage to prevent ponding that can result from severe rainfall.



EnkaPath
Colbond Inc. <BR><BR>

EnkaPath is a turf reinforcement mat that is used at the interface between the paved cart paths and grass fairways.It minimizes the soil compaction and rutting caused by carts and maintenance vehicles and improves the performance of the turf-grass by providing a structural element and a root reinforcement zone.
