Althon Working to Reduce Carbon Emissions 

As a company we are striving to reduce our environmental impact. To date we’ve been able to reduce the amount of cement used in the production of our precast concrete products by in excess of 45%.  This is only one of the areas we are currently exploring and will continue to do so over the coming months

Bespoke Angled Headwall 

Althon have recently supplied a large headwall to accommodate a 1500mm ID pipe factory fitted with HDPE flap valves and bespoke sections.  

For this project we were able to use one of our standard narrow headwalls with two extension pieces cast on the left hand side to create the angled spillway the customer required.

If you cannot find a design you are looking for please use our Design Service, email us sales@althon.co.uk or call us on 01603 488700 and we will be happy to help.

Pre-fitted Manhole Chamber Accessories

Althon are able to pre-fit step irons and penstocks into our precast concrete manhole chambers, this means the concrete does not have to be drilled on site. This saves time on the installation and has great health and safety benefits. We can also supply spindles and T-Key for manual operation or actuators directly mounted onto the penstocks. 

Wherever possible we will deliver our chambers with all factory fitted accessories still attached for faster offload and installation. 

For more information on the range of chambers please see our Precast Concrete Manhole Chambers or contact our sales team by email sales@althon.co.uk or by phone on 01603 488700

New Vermin Gratings 

Althon have just launched two new Vermin Gratings, the pipe mounted vermin gate in 304 stainless steel and also the vermin mesh grille PN16 flange in 316 stainless steel. 

Pipe mounted vermin gates in 304 stainless steel are hinged at the top to allow passage in the direction of flow but will prevent rats and other vermin climbing back up the pipe. 

Vermin mesh grilles with a PN16 flange in 316 stainless steel are designed to fit between two flanged pipes or fittings, or at the end of a flanged pipe run to prevent rodents and other vermin entering connecting pipework.
