Structural integrity
The ACO StormBrixx® system has been tested independently to certify structural integrity and the long term life expectancy.
The patented brickbonding and cross bonding feature provides a strong, long life installation and helps improve the construction speed of the tank.
Access and maintenance
ACO StormBrixx® addresses the fundamental requirement of access and maintenance for local authorities. The open cell structure permits completely free access for CCTV and jetting equipment which allows the whole system, including all the extremities, to be inspected and maintained from a few access points.
Simplified logistics
The ACO StormBrixx® simplifies delivery, site logistics and installation as a result of its stackable design. Each single injection moulded body nestles into the other, optimising logistics and installation costs significantly, thus helping to reduce the carbon footprint of the system.
