A medium density polyethylene linear drainage channel with a difference, its innovative diagonal slots mean it can cope with 38% more water than other systems on the market.<\/p>\n<p>It can also cover any load class, making it ideally suited for high capacity, heavy duty projects such as busy service yards, commercial outlets, rail and docking ports, motorways and airports with severe dynamic transport loading.<\/p>\n<h3>High performance<\/h3>\n<p>The high capacity drainage system is designed to offer attenuation and storage facilities but also to achieve sufficient flow velocities at a low gradient to ensure that the channels require minimal maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>Drexus XL\u2019s In-Situ surface finish integrates seamlessly into concrete surfaces. The system is neatly installed in a trench, its diagonal inlet slots extending all the way to the surface, and then backfilled with concrete.<\/p>\n<p>Surface water is caught by the inlet slots and passed to the main channel beneath the surface, transporting it to the sewage network. A one-piece unit, there\u2019s no need for cast iron grilles to be installed above the channel. It means there\u2019s no risk of their securing bolts coming loose and less maintenance to worry about. Concrete can simply be poured over the Drexus XL for minimal disruption to the make-up of the space. The fact the sealed unit is encased in concrete means it\u2019s essentially theft-proof.<\/p>\n<p>Tested to F900 capacity \u2013 the highest possible load rating achievable \u2013 Drexus XL is more than suited to the rigorous demands of heavy traffic including aeroplanes and dock containers.<\/p>\n<p>It was recently the drainage system of choice for a major supermarket\u2019s new distribution centre in the West Midlands,\u00a0with a total of 440 metres of Drexus XL installed beneath the busy concrete service yard.<\/p>\n<p>The result is a highly efficient and robust<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/how-drexus-pave-drain-changes-drainage\/37036\/\"> water management system<\/a> which is not only capable of withstanding the high volume of surface water, but also the heavy vehicle overrun on site for many years to come.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-37305 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Drexus-XL-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"drainage system\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Drexus-XL-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Drexus-XL-1-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Drexus-XL-1-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Drexus-XL-1-265x198.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Excellent efficiency<\/h3>\n<p>What makes Drexus XL unique? Well, unlike other products of this type, it doesn\u2019t just have a single slot running through the concrete. Instead its inlet slots are set at a 45-degree angle to increase the area that water can drain into \u2013 allowing more water to be dealt with over a shorter time period compared to industry equivalents.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve estimated that the patented technology of Drexus XL means it\u2019s capable of collecting 38% more water than other systems, assuming the same slot length.<\/p>\n<p>This translates into significant cost savings \u2013 400 metres of\u00a0Drexus XL\u00a0is as effective as 600 metres of similar drainage product, making it quicker to install too. Also, with a larger area for water to drain into, there\u2019s less chance of blockage hampering its overall performance, resulting in lower maintenance and upkeep costs.<\/p>\n<p>Its design makes the task of installation even more straightforward thanks to feet at either end and in the centre of each 2m length. A clearly-marked concrete fill level also adds to ease of use.<\/p>\n<p>So when you\u2019re looking for an innovative drainage system that\u2019s going to deliver seamless integration,\u00a0high load capacity\u00a0and unrivalled efficiency \u2013 along with straightforward installation, low maintenance and impressive cost savings \u2013 look no further than Marshalls\u2019 Drexus XL.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether it\u2019s an airport, motorway, distribution centre or busy supermarket car park, large surfaced areas need drainage systems that can cope with the volumes of water the great British weather is likely to throw at them<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[789,595,794],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172477],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-37303","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-planning-construction-news","7":"tag-drainage","8":"tag-flood-resilience","9":"tag-sh-marshalls","10":"stakeholder_rel_tag-marshalls"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Drexus XL \u2013 high capacity drainage solution | Planning, Building &amp;

We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
