WHY USE PRECAST SuDS SYSTEM?
FP McCann provides one of the most comprehensive selections of precast concrete drainage and water management products available in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Their offerings include a wide variety of proprietary Sustainable Drainage Solutions (SuDS).
Precast concrete products are a superior choice for sustainable water management, boasting twice the design life of plastic alternatives. These concrete products have a proven service life of over 100 years and possess the unique ability to gain strength over time. In contrast, other pipeline materials typically deteriorate in strength as they age. Additionally, flexible pipes are prone to increased deformation, which raises the risk of age-related structural defects.

SuDS Vs Vegetating System?
FP McCann’s Precast Concrete SuDS Systems
The SuDS Management Train: A Complete Drainage Cycle
Effective SuDS design follows the ‘management train’ principles, managing surface water runoff through a sequence of stages to mimic natural drainage. At FP McCann, we provide precast solutions for every step of the journey.
1. Source Control & Conveyance (Collect)
Managing rainfall where it lands. Our solutions include permeable surfaces and robust channel drainage to collect and transport water efficiently.
2. Water Quality Treatment (Clean)
Removing pollutants and sediment from runoff is critical. Our hydrodynamic separators and catchpits ensure only clean water proceeds to the next stage.
3. Water Quantity Control (Hold)
Storing excess water to prevent flooding. Our precast concrete attenuation tanks and systems provide robust, high-capacity storage with a 100+ year design life.
4. Discharge Control (Release)
Controlling the release of stored water into the environment. Our vortex flow control systems ensure a managed, predictable discharge rate.
