Why are drainage channels essential for roads?

Drainage channels ensure the efficient drainage of rainwater. Their design allows optimal usage of space and fast installation - with simultaneously excellent drainage performance.

At ULMA we develop drainage channels that are designed especially for these demanding applications.

Reliable drainage for German roads

On Federal Highway B4 near Coburg in various sections, a total of 700 running metres of ULMA drainage channels were installed in order to create a long-lasting and high-performance drainage solution.

The Multi V+ series, designed for moderate loads and road traffic (load class up to E600), has a polymer concrete body that makes it ideal for road applications. The material combines high rigidity with low water absorption, thus offering excellent resistance to freeze and thaw cycles and chemical impacts - perfect for use on roads.

This project saw the use of channels with a Nominal diameter of 200 mm - a versatile solution with high hydraulic power, simple installation and compatibility with different covering options.

Channels for roads, motorways and toll stations

As well as the Multi V+ series, ULMA offers a wide selection of drainage channels that are suitable for roads, motorways and other heavily used traffic surfaces.
Systems like KompaqDrain, Civil F and Civil S were developed in order to withstand high loads and intensive traffic flows - while ensuring safe, efficient and low-maintenance drainage at all times.

ULMA polymer concrete drainage channels represent durability, reliability and maximum performance - wherever safety and stability matter.
