At the Pelican View Business Park in Rochester, a site formerly used as a construction compound for the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, has been revitalized to meet modern demands. Overseeing the project, BG ensured the installation of 133 linear meters of BG-FILCOTEN pro G NW300 channel drains, paired with D400 Ductile Iron Slotted Heelsafe Grates and secured with Locking Bolts. These advanced drainage solutions leverage FILCOTEN® HPC technology for minimal weight, maximum durability, and exceptional environmental resilience. With a focus on sustainability, the materials used are 100% recyclable and produced using green power, making them ideal for eco-friendly construction projects. The high drainage performance and robust design of our products ensure Pelican View Business Park remains efficient and resilient for years to come.
