Eel Pass Headwall

Althon have designed and produced a special eel pass precast concrete headwall for an environmentally sensitive scheme.

We produced two headwalls and delivered them to the Contractor in just three weeks. The headwalls were lifted off the delivery vehicle and immediately installed.

Albert & William Wright Docks, Hull

Althon have been awarded the contract to supply 750 metres of our 400mm wide drainage channel to the Albert & William Wright Docks, Hull.

We are supplying the channel with a D400 load class ductile iron grating. All 750 metres will be on - site within 2 weeks of order placement. The first delivery was made just a few days after receipt of the order.

Ilsington River Conservation Centre

Althon have recently supplied precast culverts, wingwalls and header beams to Ilsington River Conservation Centre project on the banks of the River Frome.

Our precast units were delivered to schedule and budget, designed in cooperation with the Contractor and dramatically reduced the need to pour concrete near an open watercourse.

Althon Headwalls Gain Scottish Water Approval

Althon Headwalls and associated metalwork have been granted approval for use on SUDs features proposed for adoption by Scottish Water.

Portobello Trading Estate Drainage Channel

Althon have recently completed the supply of our high capacity drainage channel to the new Portobello Trading Estate in Birtley. 

Our largest high capacity channel was used along with an extra heavy bearing reinforced concrete lid unit for use across a large area of concrete heard-standing trafficked by large industrial vehicles.

The Althon 600 drainage channel efficiently drains large surface areas and can be laid flat as the trapezoidal shape of the channel creates its own velocity, draining the run-off surface water to the nearest outlet. With a capacity of 412 litres per metre of channel the system can also be used for the attenuation of water.
