Our Trench Grates for Cargo and Sea Ports:

Can Withstand Heavy Loads

Ports regularly experience heavy traffic from forklifts and other vehicles transporting containers between boats and the shore, which can cause considerable strain on the port itself. As a result, the trench grates installed there must be able to support the weight of large cargo loads and port equipment. 

Our cast iron grates are designed to meet specific load class requirements to ensure they do not buckle under pressure. The trench grates in our collection help maintain the integrity of drainage channels and trench drain systems and are central to the creation of safe, functional cargo ports.

Are Capable of Enduring Saltwater Environments

Exposure to salt water and harsh chemicals can lead to corrosion and deterioration, which can seriously affect the longevity of seaport materials. Many types of grates offer enhanced protection against the corrosive elements present in saltwater. This resistance is particularly important in maintaining effective drainage in saltwater ports.

Catch Debris and Pollutants

Our grates prevent large debris from clogging the drainage system of seaports and can be integrated into stormwater treatment systems. They help protect the environment by filtering out pollutants so that only water enters the drainage system.

This application is especially vital in areas where high volumes of cargo handling occur, as fuel spills and other contaminants are common. Proper installation of our trench grate products helps to maintain a clean and safe port environment while mitigating potential environmental damage.

Make Storms, Spills, and Run-Off More Manageable

Effective trench drain systems are essential for managing the flow of water and other liquids at seaports. During heavy rainfall, high volumes of water can overwhelm ports and cause an array of problems.

Our high-quality trench grates help manage these challenges by allowing water to flow efficiently into the drainage channels and preventing it from accumulating on the ground. The ability to manage run-off and stormwater is vital for protecting port infrastructure and the environment. By channeling water safely away from critical areas, trench grates help maintain operational safety and efficiency, making them an important component of any port drainage project.
