Graviti Concrete The Graviti Concrete is an
extremely porous concrete-based material, used to
manufacture a range of retaining wall products
that do not require separate drainage systems,
however for extra longevity these are sometimes
specified or recommended. The extreme porosity
enables a Graviti retaining wall to act as its
own all-in-one drainage system, thereby avoiding
the need for a separate drainage system and
therefore saving time, money and materials in the
construction process. Gravity Wall Systems is
Australias premiere company for Graviti
Concrete.

How it Works The Graviti trademark incorporates
a number of products created around the core
Graviti product a no fines concrete mix,
crucially maintaining the strength of regular
concrete. Using the Graviti concrete, we have
so far produced a number of products designed to
fit into the needs of the retaining wall
industry. They include the Graviti Block and
the Graviti Mattress. Potentially, the Graviti
concrete can be tailor made to any shape to
accommodate any situation which requires a
retaining wall system or soil stabilisation
system and scour control.

Features of common Graviti products For major
retaining walls, like revetment walls, bridge
embankments and the like the Graviti Block is
usually the core product used. It dramatically
reduces water build-up. Because of its extreme
porosity, large volumes of water can escape
quickly. In fact, compared with traditional
methods, permeability can be increased by up to
2000 per cent or up to 20 times more water than
common drainage options.
