An above-ground drainage system from Polypipe Terrain, the UK’s leading plastic piping systems manufacturer, has been specified for use on a £200m regeneration scheme in the heart of East London.
Terrain’s PVC Soil & Waste system is to be used as part of a £47m new build programme on the Ocean Estate in Stepney, one of the largest regeneration schemes in the UK.
Working closely with contractor Promech Services Ltd, Polypipe Terrain is to manufacture and supply its PVC Soil & Waste system to 470 residential units comprising of 1, 2 and 3 bed configurations.
Demonstrating Terrain’s market-leading capabilities and unique product fabrication service, the PVC Soil & Waste above-ground drainage system was specified due to its ability to offer installers a neat way to achieve a permanent joint with its Push Fit system, creating bespoke solutions on challenging projects that are wholly reliable and maintenance free.
Steve Pearce, Director of Promech Services Ltd comments: “This project will transform the lives of many residents in East London and create much needed affordable homes in the area.
“Having used Terrain’s PVC above-ground Soil & Waste system on a number of developments in the past, we were naturally keen to use it again on this particular project as it has always provided excellent performance.”
Ocean Estate will see more than 800 new homes built on the site and the refurbishment of around 1,200 existing council homes as part of a partnership between Tower Hamlets Council and East Thames Development Consortium.
