At Designbuild 2005 ACO Polycrete released the new ACO Drain (general purpose) KlassikDrain and the ACO Drain (heavy duty) PowerDrain, both boltless systems free of bolts or bars.
The drains provide secure locking, while enabling rapid and easy removal of grates for easy maintenance and cleaning. The grates are fitted onto modular precast drainage channels made from durable polymer concrete. For optimum hydraulic efficiency, precast channels may be assembled to produce stepped or sloped runs, allowing fall in flat level pavements.
To complement the new ACO Drain range, ACO has developed SlabDrain for restricted depth installations and a range of specialty systems for specific applications and problem situations. They include purpose-made trench drains for brick pavements (Brickslot); MembraneDrain, a system with provisions for the connection of waterproof membranes and MiniKlassik, an unobtrusive and attractive threshold drain.
