Stormwater Management Systems

Due to climate change, we’re experiencing more unpredictable weather events. Long periods of drought, followed by sudden spells of heavy rain are now common, which can lead to flash flooding and sewage overflows. To protect cities as well as their infrastructure and transport networks from high stormwater runoff and flood damage, municipalities throughout Europe are investing in climate adaptation measures.

Pipelife's stormwater management solutions help you build an underground drainage system that catches, cleans and retains excess stormwater runoff. Retained water can either be collected and reused for non-potable applications, or slowly released back into the surrounding soil, helping to maintain a more natural water cycle and preventing treatment plants and drainage systems from being overburdened.

All underground drainage and flood prevention systems meet stringent national and international water management and safety standards and offer the most effective solution for any stormwater management project.

Treatment & Cleaning

Stormwater poses contamination risks for water bodies and groundwater if released without pollution management. This is why we offer a broad range of stormwater filtering, separation, and treatment solutions that eliminate these common water pollution risks.

Stormwater Soakaway

Stormwater soakaway systems ensure that excess water can flow into the subsurface soil at a controlled infiltration rate. While minimizing the risks of overflow, the system also helps maintain ground water levels and a more natural water cycle.

Stormwater Attenuation

Surface runoff during heavy rainfall can bring drainage systems and treatment plants to their limits. Our attenuation or water storage systems retain and release stormwater gradually into the networks giving the option to reuse the treated water for irrigation or greywater.

Manholes and Chambers

Pipelife’s Manhole and Inspection Chamber Systems provide access to a sewer or stormwater management system for inspection, maintenance, cleaning, and sampling. Made of light PP, these systems are extremely durable and easy to install.

Smart Pumping Stations

Some flood prevention and rainwater water management systems require pumping stations to move water fast enough. With our alert and monitoring system, you can remotely surveil and control the operation of pumping stations 24/7.
