The ACO SuDS Swale Inlet unit provides an aesthetically pleasing solution when linking proprietary conveyance drainage systems to vegetated infiltration features such as swales, basins, ponds and water courses.
In comparison to traditional in-situ structures and concrete headwalls, the low profile unit provides a natural looking interface between proprietary and vegetated drainage solutions, complementing the surrounding environment.
The consistent product appearance makes the product ideal for phased or retrofit installation, and the 1 in 3 gradient profile can be used to help construct swales to satisfy the CIRIA C697 guidance (Design Criteria for Swales).
