The complete Capillary Bunker protection system, distributed and installed in India by SGDC: a liner that drains 100 inches an hour, an edge that keeps the design, and a Wash Box that cleans the sand in place.
Capillary Bunkers is the full-scale bunker system: optimal drainage and the right moisture in the sand for players, and far less work for the crew. It adheres to USGA bunker construction standards and is considered the gold standard of bunker construction, used on some of the top 100 courses in the world, from Ryder Cup to PGA venues.
Tap a layer to read what it does. Then make it rain and watch 100 inches an hour disappear through the sand while the liner keeps the base and faces moist.
Each part solves one bunker problem for good. Together they end washouts, contaminated sand and edge rebuilds.

Smaller, lighter particles float, sand sinks. The Wash Box turns that simple physics into a five-step routine that restores the sand to its original colour and drainage.
Skim the surface debris as usual after a storm, nothing more.
Connect a hose to the irrigation system and flood the bunker in place.
Silt, clay, algae and organic fines are lighter than sand. They float, the sand sinks.
The contaminated water runs off through the Capillary Wash Box into the drain line.
The sand settles back clean, bright and free-draining. No trucks, no new sand.
“Before we started, around fifty per cent of our bunkers simply did not drain. In the first three months after we renovated we had 22 inches of rain. There is not a bunker out there that has held water or washed out, or retained any silt. They have been the best addition to this golf course.”
“After 250 mm of rain, no washout, no nothing. The bunkers we did not redo, a complete mess. After this, we will redo all our bunkers with Capillary.”
“I am a big fan of the Wash Box. To have the ability to remove fines and algae, and bring sand back to its original pure-white state is amazing. I am never worried about bunker consistency now.”
“We have had three big rainstorms, three inches overnight, since we finished the installation, and we have found little or no washouts in our new bunkers. I am getting compliments every single day about how they look and play.”
“I like the fact that the concrete is a homogenous two inch layer. With Capillary Bunkers, I knew that as long as it came out of the truck properly mixed, it would give me that solid two inch layer.”
