B125 Grating: Strength and Safety for Pedestrian Areas
The choice of gratings in a drainage project is one of the key points along with the selection of the channel
The choice of gratings in a drainage project is just as important as selecting the right channel. It’s more than a design decision — it directly affects safety, long-term durability, and maintenance costs.
At ULMA, we understand that choosing the right solution can mean the difference between a drainage system that performs consistently for years and one that leads to recurring issues and repairs. Depending on the application, load class and hydraulic demands, the right grating ensures both performance and peace of mind.
In most standard installations, two-point fixing systems offer reliable, proven performance. However, in more demanding urban environments — where traffic intensity, vibration or shared usage come into play — the added stability of a four-point fixing system can make a significant difference.
Across the drainage sector, there’s a clear shift in residential and urban areas from load class A15 to B125, reflecting increasing traffic demands. Professionals are finding that A15 is often no longer sufficient for today’s urban loads.
Upgrading to a B125 solution ensures gratings can withstand up to 12.5 tonnes — without compromising pedestrian safety or structural integrity.
