Water, drainage and underground tubes

Product innovation in water, drainage and underground tubes is being driven by a mixture of imperatives, including health and safety, regulatory issues and concern over the long-term performance of more traditional drainage products. Water is fundamental to life and the first urban settlements were established near natural water resources, before the building of aqueducts rendered life possible where water was non-existent or scarce and drainage and underground tubes now serve a similar purpose in modern-day life.
