Polymer Trench Drains
Civilcast Polymer Trench Drain Systems, from Civilcast's Polymer Range, are channel drain kits for the civil, infrastructure and plumbing industries, collecting and channelling water runoff away from roads, buildings and other structures. Polymer construction keeps them lightweight and cost-effective relative to traditional drainage materials, while remaining straightforward to install and maintain. The range spans 100mm, 200mm and 300mm clear-opening channel kits in 1-metre lengths, with a choice of edge and grate materials (304 stainless steel, galvanised ductile iron, or ductile iron) fitted with GripTech HG anti-slip grates and a locking mechanism in Class B, D or E, so the edge and load rating can be matched to the project.
Features
Civilcast Polymer Trench Drain Systems are modular by design, supplied as 1-metre channel kits across three clear-opening sizes so the channel can be matched to expected water volume. Edge and grate materials, along with the GripTech HG locking mechanism and load class, can all be specified to suit the project.
- 100mm, 200mm and 300mm clear-opening channel kits
- 1-metre lengths
- 304 stainless steel, galvanised ductile iron or ductile iron edge/grate options
- GripTech HG grates with locking mechanism, Class B, D or E

Benefits
Because the system is polymer rather than concrete, the practical benefits compound through the project lifecycle: lighter components simplify installation, and the material itself is less prone to the cracking that drives repeat repairs on concrete trench drains. A locking grate mechanism then protects that investment by reducing the risk of grates being dislodged or removed once installed.
- Lighter components mean smaller crews and equipment can handle installation compared with traditional concrete trench drains
- Polymer channels are less prone to cracking than concrete equivalents, reducing repair frequency over time
- A locking grate mechanism reduces the risk of grates being dislodged or removed from site
Applications
Polymer Trench Drain Systems are used across civil infrastructure, plumbing and stormwater management projects wherever runoff needs to be collected and channelled away from roads, buildings and surrounding hard landscaping. Their lighter weight and modular sizing make them a practical option on sites where a full concrete trench drain installation would be slower or more disruptive.
- Civil infrastructure projects
- Plumbing and stormwater management
- Roads, buildings and surrounding hard landscaping

FAQ's
100mm, 200mm and 300mm. The right size depends on the expected water volume the channel needs to carry.
Stainless steel, galvanised ductile iron and ductile iron. Stainless steel is typically chosen for higher-corrosion environments, while galvanised or ductile iron suits standard civil applications.
