Innovative and Sustainable Underground Drainage Solutions by FloPlast

FloPlast are established in the manufacture and supply of plastic building and plumbing systems in the UK. They focus on product design with many innovative features incorporated into their products which makes them practical, both to install and in their functionality.

FloPlast Underground Drainage Systems are designed for use in gravity drainage and sewerage installations at depths of up to seven metres.

All drainage pipes and the majority of fittings are manufactured from unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC-U). Inspection chambers, 0 - 90° adjustable bend, gully traps and gully grids are manufactured from polypropylene.

All Push-Fit underground fittings have a captive seal and snap cap which are designed to be user-friendly - no sharp edges, and with space restrictions in mind, allow for an easy fit connection.

The seal is double ribbed, and the sockets incorporate a recessed area to provide space for the rubber seal to locate as the pipe is inserted, forming a high-capacity pressure point.

The design and flexibility of the FloPlast 300mm MAC and 450mm LIC brings unrivalled flexibility to the underground drainage market.

A unique selection of their chamber bases (D900/ D800/D801/D802) incorporate flexible connections on all inlets allowing a 10° movement in any direction. This is of great assistance to the installer where the connecting pipes are not perfectly aligned with the inlets. In many instances, it will eliminate the need to install an extra bend and provide a saving on cost of the installation.

FloPlast are also thrilled to share that their sewer pipes align seamlessly with the Design Construction Guidance. In the realm of thermoplastics solid wall pipes and fittings for gravity sewers (E2.21), FloPlast guarantees compliance with the relevant sections of BS EN 1401-1 (PVC-U) as required. And that’s not all – their ancillary drainage fittings proudly meet the standards of BS EN 13598-1.

With regards to thermoplastics structured wall pipes (E2.22), their 160mm sewer pipes are designed to meet the regulations outlined in WIS 4-35-01 and BS EN 13476-2, and all of their pipes carry the prestigious BSi Kitemark. You can find the certification here. Plus, pipes are manufactured to SN8 ring-stiffness, ensuring they also adhere to Sfa7 regulations.

In addition to all of this FloPlast chamber bases and risers are manufactured from recycled material, to ensure nothing goes to landfill.
