It incorporates a specialized 2.54 cm (1 in) thick mineral wool retention blanket placed over a custom drainage board to enhance water retention. For projects with higher stormwater management needs, additional layers of mineral wool can be added to further increase retention capacity, allowing for flexible solutions tailored to specific project requirements.
