Introduction
Royal Mail's distribution facility in Daventry required a robust drainage solution to replace failing systems. They selected Gatic Slotdrain, specifically the CastSlot model, to address the unique challenges posed by slow-turning, heavy vehicles.

Specifications
Royal Mail specified nearly 1,500 meters of Gatic Slotdrain. The primary requirement was the ability to withstand the pressure from slow-turning lorries, which had caused previous systems to fail. CastSlot was chosen for its enhanced strength along the channel run, making it capable of handling heavy wheel loads and slow turning wheels.

Custom Solutions
Gatic worked closely with consulting engineers and contractors to design and install a system tailored to the specific needs of the Daventry facility. This included customizing drainage channels to accommodate geographical requirements, such as slightly shallower channels in certain areas while maintaining the same width.

Engineering and Design
Gatic's integrated approach, with manufacturing, engineering, and design teams based at their headquarters in Dover, UK, enabled them to provide bespoke solutions. The CastSlot's design includes a strong throat to withstand heavy loads, ensuring durability and reliability.

Conclusion
Gatic's Slotdrain system, particularly the CastSlot model, provided Royal Mail with a durable and customized drainage solution capable of meeting the demands of their distribution facility in Daventry.
