Althon are able to pre-fit flow control devices such as flap valves, penstocks and Wastop valves to our precast headwalls.

All accessories are factory fitted at our works meaning the concrete does not have to be drilled on site. This saves time on the installation and has great health and safety benefits.

Along with other factory fitted accessories such as Kee Klamp handrails and a range of grating configurations our headwalls can be lifted straight from a delivery vehicle and installed very quickly and efficiently.
