Product Overview

1m surface water drainage channel designed for the effective collection and discharge of rainwater from paved areas, driveways, and paths. 

The ACO RainDrain system combines a strong polymer concrete channel body with a galvanised steel grating for enhanced durability and long-term performance.


Engineered for domestic and light commercial applications, the channel provides a robust and efficient means of managing surface run-off. The galvanised steel top grating resists corrosion, impact, and wear from frequent foot traffic, making it ideal for regularly used outdoor spaces.


Each 1m unit incorporates interlocking ends for quick alignment and secure connection, forming a continuous linear drainage run. The channel profile promotes smooth water flow to the outlet, ensuring efficient surface drainage even in heavy rainfall conditions.


RainDrain channels are compatible with a full range of ACO accessories, including sump units, outlet adaptors, and end caps, allowing full system flexibility and straightforward installation on site.
