Modular Drainage System Advantages

  • Increased Workforce Safety

    Optimising safety by design in drainage construction by reducing trench excavation requirments, and through the replacement of heavy materials, such as filter stone and concrete.

  • Major Cost Savings

    The streamlined design our Sustainable Modular Drainage Systems minimise filter stone and trench depth requirements to overcome costs and constraints, while in tandem the durable characteristics of rubber materials increases asset resilience for enhanced long-term performance. 


    An exceptional infiltration rate is presented to persistently remove water with increased efficacy, uphold drainage functionality and reduce the maintenance burden associated with conventional 'piped drainage' and concrete systems.

  • Modular Design Benefits

    The consistency of the drainage materials deployed, firmly delivers on safety by design principles, while enabling significant efficiencies in drainage asset construction to be achieved.

  • Durability

    System lifespan is prolonged through the use of rubber materials that ensure long‐term durability and resilience are achieved. The UV and chemical resistance of the composites provides resistance to degradation and common chemicals such as petrol, diesel, de‐icer, and salt.


  • Recycled Material Composition

    Conventional materials, such as filter stone and concrete are carbon heavy. 


    We support environmental sustainability by replacing such materials with recycled rubber  materials.

  • Reduce Carbon Footprint CO2e

    Civil Water Management take a firm stance on the drive to net zero and fight against climate change. 


    End of life tyres are a global issue with upto 50% still being incinerated.


    It is essential that incineration, landfill and other harmful forms of end of life disposal are dramatically reduced in order that significantly less CO2 is emitted to the atmosphere, and to prevent damage being caused to the environment. 


    Sustainable Modular Drainage Systems provide an invaluable alternative to harmful forms of end of life disposal, by using a minimum of 90% waste materials in production of drainage units, which in turn enables projects to actively reduce their carbon footprint and environmental impact.

  • Environmental Compliance

    Environmental safety is confirmed complying with environmental safety standards.

    Heavy Metals. Pass.

    NF P 90‐112:2016 for recycled rubber  materials is free from harmful PAHs.

  • Temperature Resistance

    Performance is maintained in both hot and cold environments.


  • Flexibility

    Minor ground movements are accommodated, reducing the risk of system failure.

  • Load‐Bearing Capacity

    Our Sustainable Modular Drainage Systems are designed to handle standard loading conditions in drainage applications.
