Artificial turf surfaces are a type of plastic carpet. When playing on the surfaces, the EPDM granulate (the material used for infilled artificial turf) and the synthetic grass fibres are exposed to repeated strain. The mechanical wear from higher tread loads - as created during football or rugby - causes tiny particles or blades [...]

What is microplastic?Microplastics are plastic particles that are five millimetres and smaller. The particles are often so tiny that they are hardly visible to the human eye. This is why the description "invisible microplastic" is often used in the media. Origin and distribution of microplasticMany people initially think of microbeads and microplastics in cosmetics, for example:PeelingShower [...]

The exemplary calculation of the hydraulic capacity of two channel runs in the same application (one with and one without built-in fall) clearly shows, that the velocity at the end of the channel run is identical. That means RECYFIX Channels fulfill all hydraulic demands and make sure that in all applications stormwater flows in [...]

Progress that can be compared to changing the drawing board to a computer. Yes, that's BIM revolution. HAURATON keeps up the pace.  Recognising a growing desire within the sector to gain the same advantages BIM offers construction projects, the BIM offering will cover products manufactured by Hauraton. BIM files are now available in REVIT for [...]

The graphs based on the program for hydraulic calculation of channels, created by the Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Department of Hydraulics and the corresponding tests from the year 2006. The values refer to a rainfall rate of 150 l / s ha, an free discharge at the end of the channel [...]
