A new distribution centre at Littlebrook Business Park features the market leading Gatic CastSlot water management system. Littlebrook (orbital 47) is home to several firms which rely on the near constant movement of goods.
Zach Graham, Alumasc Area Sales Manager for London and the South East, said: “The distribution centre is in an ideal location due to the surrounding environment with easy access to the M25.” He said that as the loading area is fairly small, “it is put under a lot of pressure every day, with constantly turning vehicles.” And this meant any surface water management product had to be guaranteed to withstand extremely heavy and frequent loads.
Gatic specialises in integrated, high capacity surface water management and engineered access covers. Its surface water drainage systems have been used to capture, control and return run-off into the natural water cycle, even in high pressure situations.
The system was chosen for its high capacity surface water intake, as well as its high-performance loading capabilities. It has been specifically designed to bear load ratings of up to F900, which is 90 tonnes.
Proven in the most demanding infrastructure, industrial and commercial projects, the Gatic range comprises exterior surface water channels, high capacity channels, linear and slot drainage, as well as access covers.
Gatic CastSlot was also used on another depot in this project. Pleased with the outcome, Zach commented: “This just goes to show the strength of the brand and the great reputation of the product. These sites now have solutions that will last and perform, testament to Gatic’s quality manufacturing.”
