ULMA have supplied Kompaqdrain channels at the Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit, a motorsport track in Barcelona.
Kompaqdrain Compact Channels
These are monolithic channels with a grating integrated into one single body. Since these channels are compact (the grating and channel are integrated into one single piece), they offer increased safety and stability.
But let’s go into more detail about its features and benefits. ULMA discuss three in particular and tell you why they were decisive in this project.
The first feature is that the entire range of Kompaqdrain channels includes the exclusive max-flow system, and thanks to the original reverse tapering design of the inlet holes, are able to increase the speed of the water and the drainage capacity of the channel.
The second feature is the surface of the channels. The Kompaqdrain Industry model is designed with a reverse anti-slip surface, which also includes elements that direct the water towards the collection holes. These holes are small in size (30 x 25 mm) and have a surface design without protrusions, to prevent vibration in cars as they drive over them.
And finally, that are made from polymer concrete, a material that is highly resistant to compression; it can withstand up to 1300 kp/cm2, whereas traditional concrete can only withstand up to 500 kp/cm2. Furthermore, the hardness of the silica aggregates ensures that the surfaces exposed to road traffic will be well preserved, one of the characteristics of the circuit located in Montmeló, where there is constant traffic of loaded lorries.
Delivery Times
Once ULMA supplied the product and completed the installation, they spoke with project managers to get some feedback, and they rated particularly highly for the fact that all delivery times were met.
Do you know how? Thanks to coordination and teamwork. Because, what use is having the one of the best products on the market if you're not there when the customer needs you?
At ULMA, they have an extensive national sales and distribution network to guarantee that our drainage solutions are available whenever and wherever you need them.
