Flow Control and Flood Prevention

Flow Control and Flood Prevention 

With extreme weather becoming more common, towns and their surrounding areas are more at risk of flooding than ever before. Here at Althon we sell a wide variety of flow control and flood prevention products that can help reduce the risks. Many of our products that allow the management of water can also be factory fitted to our precast concrete headwalls. Precast headwalls are an important part of most SUDS drainage schemes, preventing erosion at the point of discharge into watercourses such as attenuation ponds, detention basins, rivers, ditches and swales.
