Civil Drainage Revolution
The civil drainage market has long been dominated by products that prioritise utility over aesthetics. Traditional materials such as concrete, polymer concrete, and galvanised steel have set the standard for civil drainage systems. These materials, while effective in channelling stormwater and withstanding the demands of outdoor environments, often lack consideration for design, leading to uninspired, utilitarian solutions. In this landscape, aesthetics has typically taken a backseat to function, until now.
Enter CLICK DRAIN®, a revolutionary approach that redefines what civil drainage can be. Designed with both form and function in mind, CLICK DRAIN® is poised to set a new standard in the civil drainage market, blending the strength and durability required for stormwater management with the sleek aesthetics typically reserved for architectural applications.
CLICK DRAIN® Civil Solutions
The primary purpose of civil drainage systems is to efficiently channel surface water into stormwater systems, preventing flooding and minimising water damage to infrastructure.
These systems must endure harsh outdoor conditions, including exposure to the elements and heavy vehicular traffic. As such, civil drainage grates must be durable, strong, and compliant with relevant load ratings while ensuring pedestrian safety.
Traditional civil drainage products have focused on meeting these demands, often at the expense of aesthetics. However, as urban environments evolve and architectural design becomes more integrated with public infrastructure, there is a growing need for civil drainage solutions that do not compromise on visual appeal. This is where CLICK DRAIN® shines, offering an architectural approach to civil drainage that meets all functional requirements while enhancing the overall design of the space.
Drainage Utopia
CLICK DRAIN® is not just a drainage system, it’s a revolution in civil infrastructure. It combines the best of both worlds: the robustness required for outdoor applications and the sleek visuals desired by architects and designers. As a modular trench drainage system, CLICK DRAIN® offers unparalleled benefits to civil drainage projects.
Fabricated from high-quality 304 and 316 stainless steel, both the channels and grates are designed to withstand the harshest conditions. Unlike other modular systems, CLICK DRAIN® features a unique click-together system that ensures a seamless. transition between sections, eliminating the need for unsightly joints or complicated installations. This system is aptly named, as it truly”clicks” into place, making installation quick and efficient.
Another standout feature of CLICK DRAIN® is its sleek Heelguard grates. These grates not only offer a refined aesthetic unmatched in the civil drainage space but are also slip-resistant, preventing toe entrapment and enhancing pedestrian safety. This makes CLICK DRAIN® the ideal solution for civil applications where appearances matter, such as in urban plazas, pedestrian zones, and public parks.
Excellent Extras
CLICK DRAIN® offers several key advantages that set it apart from traditional civil drainage systems:
- Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel, by its very composition, is highly resistant to corrosion, making it a reliable and long-lasting choice for civil drainage systems.
- Lightweight, Heavy Hitter: One of the most significant benefits of CLICK DRAIN® is its lightweight construction. Despite its lightness, it does not compromise on strength, making it easier and more cost-effective to transport and install. Traditional civil drainage products, like concrete or polymer concrete, are much heavier, leading to higher transport costs and more labour-intensive installations.
- Ease of Installation: The modular nature of CLICK DRAIN®, combined with its lightweight design, allows for precise and efficient installations. Unlike other modular systems that may be brittle, difficult to cut, or require specialised tools, CLICK DRAIN® is resilient and user-friendly. It also features friction locks and concrete levelling ties. This ease of installation not only reduces labour costs but also minimises the potential for errors, ensuring a flawless finish every time.
