Advanced Material.

Manufactured from recycled tyre rubber and featuring avg. 45% void space to sustain permeability across its entire installation.

Modular DRAINAGE SYSTEMs

Roads Overview.

Using recycled tyre rubber formed into advanced drainage units as a replacement for perforated pipe, concrete channels and loose granular stone within road environments.

Providing sustained high permeability across its entire installation due to its avg. 45% void space, effectively reducing and preventing trapped water along roadways, crucial for maintaining safe driving conditions.

Sustainable Design: Manufactured from recycled tyre rubber, the drainage material deployed by the system is designed to reduce environmental impact.

Resilient Construction: Unlike traditional systems prone to blockages, the durable and robust structure prevents structural failures and ensures longevity.

Self-Correcting Installation: Facilitates consistent, effective drainage even if initial alignments are imperfect.

Quick and Efficient Installation: Reduces road closure times with its modular design, easy to expand or modify as needed.

Chemical and Temperature Resistant: Withstands harsh substances and varying temperatures, suitable for diverse climates.

This system not only meets but exceeds the traditional drainage solutions by offering durability and ease of maintenance, which are vital for the longevity of road infrastructure.

Features

Unique suite of modular drainage panels, mats, stackers and troughs
Avg. 45% void ratio for optimal water intake
Vertical permeability of 49 l/m²/s maximises water infiltration for drainage immediacy
Self-correcting installation alignment
Long-term load fatigue tested
Chemical resistance withstands common chemicals e.g. petrol, diesel, salt and de-icer
Temperature resistance performs consistently in both and low temperature conditions
Manufactured from recycled tyre rubber supporting environmental sustainability
Designed to accommodate minor ground movements, reducing risk of structural failure
UV resistant to degradation from ultraviolet light, prolonging the lifespan of installations
Modular design and connection options for ease of install, extension and maintenance

Advantages

Modular drainage systems have been developed for road asset managers, drainage designers, road engineers, contractors, environmental specialists, strategic road operators, transport and local authorities to benefit from:

Improved safety through enhanced design, build and water management
Reduced excavation, spoil management and carbon footprint benefits
De-risked and shortened road possession times
Enabling adaptable whole-system approaches to drainage within road environments
Increased drainage connectivity, attenuation, soakaway and outfall options
Improved land management and Biodiversity Net Gains
Stronger nature-based solutions, wildlife and ecology preservation
Infrastructure resilience against traditional drainage failure modes and climate change
Reduced maintenance burdens
Mitigation against road formation degradation
Whole-life cost savings
60+ year design life in standard conditions for drainage parts
60 year design life in active loading of 50 to 95 kPa
