Channel Drainage - Linear Drainage Channels

Linear Channel Drainage

Home

Drainage channels, commonly referred to as trench or linear drainage channels, are used to take surface water away from an area. Channel drainage is an essential component for almost every drainage system from landscaping right up to airport runways. Especially in our current climate, where rainfall is expected and can be unpredictable, it is more important now than ever to manage and collect surface water efficiently and effectively.

Channel drainage is one of the most effective surface water drainage systems available.
