ACO GALA G100 polymer concrete drainage channel, height 8 cm 10593

Drainage system for medium-traffic areas

The ACO GALA G100 channel is a component of a linear drainage system that combines the durability of polymer concrete with load class C-250. This makes the solution suitable not only for pedestrian areas but also for locations where lighter vehicles operate – such as cycle paths, platforms, or school courtyards. A height of 8 cm and a length of 1 meter allow flexible adaptation to various surfaces, while the use of polymer concrete ensures resistance to frost and chemicals, which is crucial under Polish climatic conditions.

Applications and practical benefits

The product is factory-equipped with a symmetrical cast iron grate, facilitating installation and subsequent maintenance. The screw-fastened grating system is preferred by installers – it allows quick disassembly when channel cleaning or repairs are needed, without risking damage to structural components. For the end user, this means safety: the grate does not "shift" under vibrations or wheel movement.

This system fits perfectly into various usage scenarios:

• Recreational areas – parks, playgrounds, where aesthetics and safety are priorities.
• Urban infrastructure – sidewalks, curb-side gutters, areas around sports fields.
• Industrial and logistics sites – access roads for light vehicles (e.g., forklifts), maneuvering yards with limited heavy truck traffic.

It is worth noting that the channel features a factory-made groove for SF joint filler. This small detail significantly accelerates finishing works – simply fill the gap with mortar or jointing compound to achieve an aesthetic transition between the channel and the surface (asphalt, concrete, or paving stones).

Construction and resistance to external conditions

The material – polymer concrete – is a composite with high mechanical strength and resistance to chemical corrosion. Unlike traditional concrete, it does not crack easily under freeze-thaw cycles. Load class C-250 means the channel can carry loads up to 25 tons (depending on boundary conditions), making it safe even in areas with higher pedestrian traffic or light delivery vehicles.

System components feature robust construction based on symmetrical cast iron grates and frost-resistant polymer concrete as the main channel material. This combination of materials ensures long-term stability even when exposed to road salts or aggressive atmospheric factors. Installation is facilitated by the system's modular connections and the ready-made grooving for jointing, eliminating the need for additional adaptation work when connecting to the surface. Each module has a length of 1000 mm and a height of 8 cm, allowing precise dimensional adaptation to existing infrastructure without complex cutting or on-site modifications.

Thanks to a simple installation model and pre-formed grooves for jointing, installation time is shorter compared to traditional drainage systems. This solution is ideal for those seeking a durable alternative to cast iron or plastic channels in locations requiring higher mechanical strength than standard PVC or PP profiles offer.
