APPLICATIONS

1. Residential:

• Driveways & Garages: Prevents pooling and handles runoff from vehicles and rain.
• Patios, Decks & Terraces: Creates a slope-free surface for furniture, prevents water damage to structures, and improves safety by eliminating puddles.
• Pool Decks & Surrounds: Essential for rapid removal of chlorinated/salt water, preventing slippery surfaces, protecting landscaping, and managing backwash water.
• Walkways & Paths: Ensures safe, dry passage, especially on slopes or in high-traffic areas.
• Gardens & Landscaping: Controls runoff from lawns, flowerbeds, and retaining walls. Used in decorative water features.
• Courtyards & Entryways: Prevents water accumulation at building entrances.

2. Commercial & Public:

• Parking Lots & Garages: Manages large volumes of runoff from extensive impervious surfaces, preventing flooding, hydroplaning, and structural damage. Critical for safety and durability.
• Shopping Centers & Retail Plazas: Keeps pedestrian areas, loading docks, and service entrances dry and safe.
• Hotels & Resorts: Used around pools, spas, outdoor dining areas, walkways, and entrances.
• Sports Facilities & Stadiums: Drains playing fields (natural turf or synthetic), tracks, spectator areas, and concourses quickly to resume play after rain and ensure safety.
• Airports: Critical for runways, taxiways, aprons, and terminals to prevent hydroplaning, ensure safety, and manage de-icing fluid runoff.
• Roads, Highways & Bridges: Collects surface runoff from carriageways, shoulders, and medians. Used on bridge decks to prevent water accumulation and corrosion.
• Public Squares & Plazas: Manages rainwater in high-traffic urban gathering spaces.
• Pedestrian Zones & Walkways: Ensures safe, dry passage in urban environments.

3. Industrial:

• Loading Docks & Warehouses: Handles runoff from trucks, roof runoff, and spills, keeping operational areas dry and safe.
• Manufacturing Facilities: Drains process water, washdown water, and spills from production floors, especially in food processing, automotive, and chemical plants.
• Fuel Stations & Car Washes: Manages large volumes of water, detergents, oils, and fuels, often requiring oil/grit separators.
• Ports & Docks: Drains surface water from quaysides and storage areas.

1. Residential:

• Bathrooms & Wet Rooms: Creates barrier-free, level-access showers (zero-threshold showers). Offers modern aesthetics and efficient drainage.
• Kitchens & Utility Rooms: Handles spills and appliance overflow, especially in areas near sinks, dishwashers, and washing machines.
• Basements & Cellars: Manages seepage or potential flooding at floor level (often part of a larger system).

2. Commercial & Public:

• Public Restrooms & Locker Rooms: Essential for hygiene and safety in shower areas, around sinks, and in wet zones.
• Commercial Kitchens & Food Processing: Critical for hygiene, managing large volumes of washdown water, spills, and preventing slip hazards. Must meet strict sanitation standards.
• Swimming Pools & Spas (Indoor): Drains deck areas efficiently.
• Healthcare Facilities: Used in operating theaters, sterilization rooms, and patient care areas where strict hygiene and fluid management are paramount.
• Laboratories: Manages spills and chemical rinses safely.
• Animal Care Facilities (Kennels, Vet Clinics): Handles washdown water and waste.

3. Industrial:

• Food & Beverage Processing: Essential for hygiene, managing washdown water, spills, and preventing contamination. Often stainless steel with specific grating.
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Maintains sterile environments and manages process fluids.
• Chemical Plants: Safely drains spills and process water, often requiring chemical-resistant materials.
• Electronics Manufacturing: Controls static and manages cleanroom fluids.
• Vehicle Maintenance Bays: Handles oil, coolant, and washdown water.

4. Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS):

Used as part of systems designed to mimic natural drainage, reduce runoff volume, and improve water quality (e.g., permeable pavement with linear edge drains).

• High Capacity: Efficiently collect large volumes of water over a long, narrow area.
• Rapid Removal: Prevents ponding and flooding quickly.
• Design Flexibility: Allow for level surfaces, complex geometries, and integration with various materials (concrete, pavers, asphalt, tiles).
• Safety: Minimize slip hazards by eliminating standing water.
• Hygiene: Easy to clean and sanitize (especially important indoors and in food/healthcare).
• Aesthetics: Offer sleek, modern looks compared to multiple point drains.
• Accessibility: Enable barrier-free designs (e.g., zero-threshold showers).
• Durability: Available in materials (concrete, polymer concrete, stainless steel, HDPE) suitable for harsh environments and heavy loads.
