Ultra-Pellet Drain
Description
The Ultra-Pellet Drain is an integrated drainage solution for flexible containment bunds, specially developed to capture plastic resin pellets—commonly known as nurdles—while allowing rainwater to drain freely. Ideal for sites handling plastic manufacturing materials, this product helps prevent the release of nurdles into the environment, supporting cleaner operations and environmental compliance.
Important Note:
The Ultra-Pellet Drain must be ordered at the same time as the compatible bund, as it is built directly into the bund wall. It is designed specifically for pellet containment and is not suitable for bunds used to hold liquids.
Features & Benefits
-
Large 152mm Diameter Drain: Allows for rapid rainwater drainage, reducing pooling while containing nurdles within the bund.
-
Efficient 17×8 Weave Design: Effectively traps plastic pellets while enabling quick liquid outflow, ensuring site safety and cleanliness.
-
Customisable for Larger Areas: Multiple drains can be installed for use with larger bunds, ensuring efficient drainage across wide areas.
-
Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from vinyl-coated polyester for durability and resistance to wear in demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is there a plug for the Ultra-Pellet Drain? No. Since the drain itself is flexible, along with the bund it is installed into, there is no drain plug available. Containment bunds that incorporate the use of the Ultra-Pellet Drain will not contain liquids of any kind.
- How can I contain plastic pellets and liquids at the same time? An Ultra-Pellet Drain in a bund prevents liquid retention. You can put the bund with a pellet drain over another containment device to catch any liquid that flows through the pellet drain, depending on the model and situation.
An example of this would be a Mini Foam Wall model Ultra-Containment Bund with the Ultra-Pellet Drain installed, which will contain plastic pellets but not liquids, placed on top of a Flexible Model Ultra-Spill Pallet designed to contain liquids but not plastic pellets. - What does “17×8 mesh” mean? The 17×8 weave construction in this mesh fabric means that there are 17 threads per inch running in one direction (warp), and 8 threads per inch running in the perpendicular direction (fill). In other words, the fabric is made up of a grid-like pattern of interlaced threads, with 17 threads in one direction and 8 threads in the other.
