Why SABdrain?
The SABdrain Advantage
Ease of Assembly
The modular design of our polypropylene channels makes the assembly and installation of the drainage channels easy, thus saving time and money.
Recyclable
Our products are made from 100% recyclable products that can be used again in the manufacturing process. Therefore protecting for the environment for the future generations.
Hydraulic Performance
The smooth rounded internal surface of the SABdrain water drainage systems creates higher flows rates while allowing a self cleaning action thus avoiding the accumulation of silt deposits.
Chemical Resistance
Due to SABdrain’s superior polypropylene construction, it is able to resist most chemical agents, acids, salts, alkaline, fuels, oils, fats, etc.
High Strength
The advanced construction of the SABdrain drainage channel gives it greater structural rigidity, protecting it from damage during and after installation.
Lightweight
Being manufactured from lightweight materials, SABdrain has the added advantage of being easier to handle, transport, and install.
Anti-Slip
Anti-slip buttons giving the grate a slip resistance surface.
Lock-Down
2 point security lock-down for Anti-Theft peace of mind
Frequently
Asked Questions
Are SABdrain systems easy to install?
Installing SABdrain drainage systems is a simple process due to the click-clack feature on the channels, saving time and labor costs. View detailed information on our installation page.
How to create a corner/90 degree angle with SABdrain channels?
SAB channels have preset lateral connection for 90 degree joining of 2 channel units together. Allows right angles, corners, tees & crosses without any additional fittings.

What are SABdrain drains made of?
SABdrain channels are manufactured from polypropylene. Grates are available in a range of materials.
Is there an alternative to ACO drainage systems?
Yes, SABdrain drainage systems are an alternative supplier for drainage solutions. SABdrain utilises polypropylene channels over polymer. Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer that offers numerous benefits, including high chemical resistance, durability, and flexibility. These qualities make it an ideal choice for drain channel applications in various industries, such as food processing, automotive, and pharmaceutical.
One of the key advantages of polypropylene trench drain channels is their ability to withstand harsh chemicals commonly found in industrial environments. This resistance to corrosion ensures a longer lifespan for the drainage system, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Additionally, polypropylene channels are lightweight and easy to handle during installation, making the process more efficient and cost-effective.
SABdrain VS the Competition
When compared to a polymer concrete channel, our polypropylene channels are lighter, easier to install, have a quicker flow rate, and more strength than your standard polymer concrete channel
