Sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) are surface water management practices that mimic natural drainage processes. Also known as sustainable urban drainage systems, SuDS are a great alternative to traditional drainage systems as these manage rainwater locally instead of channelling water to nearby watercourses through pipes and sewers. 

These sustainable drainage systems are designed to decrease surface water flooding, reduce the burden on sewerage systems, improve water quality by reducing pollution from runoff, slow the flow of water to allow it to infiltrate into the ground and help wildlife thrive in urban areas. These have started to become more popular in recent years as we started to understand the way urban developments affect natural environments.

Permeable aggregates are often used for sustainable drainage systems. These aggregates allow water to slowly soak into the ground, mimicking natural water recharge. At Mainland Aggregates, we supply a variety of permeable sub bases, including Type 3 MOT, 2-6mm Clean Stone, 4-20mm Clean Stone and 1-4mm Joint Filling Aggregate. Our SuDS aggregates are available in bulk bags or loose by the tonne with nationwide delivery. 

SuDS aggregates are particularly preferred for permeable paving systems with each having their own specification for how permeable aggregates should be used with their particular block. So, if you need to create a drainage layer for your SuDS or are searching for permeable paving solutions, contact us to discuss your project’s requirements.
