It’s possible that pupils can try to pull the gratings off drainage channels. The channel system needs to either have lockable bolts or be a monolithic system to ensure they are vandal-proof.
Pupils can be very talented at trying to play with drainage systems. This can lead to them getting their fingers stuck in the gratings or wedging things in it. The system must have narrow slots to try and deter this issue.
As playground drainage and pedestrianised areas can be subject to a low volume of traffic, channel systems with composite gratings are ideal. Once in place, the gratings will not corrode (no oxidation) and will maintain their aesthetic appearance for the project’s lifetime.
Composite material is lighter, more durable, longer-lasting, and sustainable and produced from raw material. As we grow evermore conscious about the environment, designing and constructing with eco-friendly building materials is growing.
Depending on the design specification, the channel system may need to fulfil an aesthetic function.
School playgrounds or MUGA, for example, may need the system to match the aesthetics of the final finish. External public areas could require aesthetically pleasing gratings or discreet gratings that blend into the surface.
Compatible with our RECYFIX PRO system, FIBRETEC gratings have an aesthetic optimised design and come in a variety of different colours that can compliment the surface colour such as tarmac or EPDM playgrounds.
Choosing the correct system solely depends upon the design and application area, for example, pedestrianised area, playground, MUGA or the building façade. Our experts are happy to discuss your project to ensure you have the right solution.
