As a recognised specialist in perimeter drainage solutions, we are expanding our BATIFIBRE® range with a major innovation: the integration of push-fit connectors specifically designed for BATIFIBRE® Ø90 flat trough foundation drains (installation without gravel) or BATIDRAIN (installation with gravel).
This development complements a solution that is already highly regarded for its performance, lightness and ease of installation.

A response to the needs of the field
On construction sites, the performance of a drainage system depends as much on the quality of the drains as on the ease of installation of the fittings. The arrival of push-fit fittings responds to a strong demand from installers: to simplify installation and guarantee a perfect connection and compatibility with existing BATIFIBRE® drains without gravel or BATIDRAIN drains with gravel.
A gravel-free perimeter drainage system… truly comprehensive
The BATIFIBRE® drain, with its synthetic fibre coating and perforated corrugated drain with a flat bottom, provides effective perimeter drainage without the need for a gravel bed. Lightweight, flexible, crush-resistant and durable, it is ideal for both new builds and renovations.
With the arrival of BATIFIBRE® push-fit connectors, the range now offers a consistent, ready-to-use solution that guarantees perfect continuity of water flow throughout the drainage network.
BATIFIBRE® connectors: time savings, safety and compatibility
Designed specifically for the BATIFIBRE® and BATIDRAIN range dedicated to perimeter drainage of buildings without gravel, the push-fit connectors offer several key advantages:
- Easy installation: the push-fit system allows for quick installation without the need for special tools.
- Their optimal connection: the fittings are designed to guarantee a reliable connection, even on unstable ground. The lugs prevent the fittings from coming apart.
- Their perfect compatibility: each flat-bottomed fitting is specifically sized to fit the standard diameter of BATIFIBRE® or BATIDRAIN Ø90 flat trough drains.
- Their versatility: 90° or 45° elbows, Ø100 or Ø110 outlet inspection chambers, sleeves, adapters, plugs; the range covers all drainage network configurations.
The result: a modular, practical system that is perfectly suited to the constraints of construction sites..
A solution highly regarded by perimeter drainage professionals
Whether for perimeter drainage of detached houses, extensions or industrial buildings, the complete BATIFIBRE® system (drain + fittings) requires less handling and offers enhanced protection against infiltration and capillary rise in walls.
In addition, the absence of gravel significantly reduces logistics costs, earthworks volumes and installation time on site.
Technical performance and environmental sustainability
The BATIFIBRE® drain, with a resistance greater than 4 kN/m², a flat bottom reinforcing its rigidity and coated with a voluminous fibre, is part of a sustainable construction approach. It offers resistance to crushing, ensuring greater longevity than a conventional drain under normal conditions of use.
- As a reminder, agricultural drains or spreading pipes have been prohibited in France since 2020 by DTU 20.1 for perimeter drainage of buildings.
With this development, we are confirming our commitment to offering comprehensive, ready-to-use, reliable and economical technical solutions.
The BATIFIBRE range has become a benchmark in modern, gravel-free, fully controlled perimeter drainage.
