ORCA DRAIN AUSTRALIAN PRODUCTS
ORCA Drain is the company’s flagship range of world-class, Australian made polymer concrete surface drainage pits and channels.
One of the worst things that can happen to any property is civil drainage complications. Not only is it very costly to fix, but it can also pose significant danger to the building. Poor drainage systems usually lead to undercut driveways or foundations, stormwater or sewer overflow and water damage to the building.
How can these be prevented?
Employing the right civil drainage system is the answer, and that is what ORCA has been providing for almost two decades.
ORCA Drain channels, pits and grates are leaders in the industry for design and quality, exceeding Australian standards:
- AS3996:2006 Access covers and grates
- AS4586:2013 Slip resistance classification of new pedestrian surfaces
- AS1428.1 Design for access and mobility
ORCA offers the following drainage products:
Trench Drain
A trench drain (also can be called channel drain, line drain, slot drain, linear drain or strip drain) is a specific type of drain containing a dominant trough or channel-shaped body. It is used for the rapid evacuation of surface water or for the containment of utility lines or chemical spills.
ORCA offers an extensive range of polymer concrete trench drain products along with a wild range of grating finishes including stainless and galvanised heelsafe grating, heavy-duty ductile grating to suit all your applications.
ORCA drains are made of polymer concrete, which is a combination of concrete and resin. Its unique property makes it the perfect material for trench drain systems and is ideal for external landscaping and civil projects.
Sump Pit
A sump pit can be used for drainage, electrical and communication application.
ORVA carries four sizes of polymer concrete pits (300×300, 450×450, 600×600 and 900×900) along with grate, covers and infill lid for all project requirement.
