Smart solutions for sustainable water management

You are facing complex choices in water management, sewerage, and drainage. Regulations, technical requirements, and feasibility make every project unique. That is why it is best to collaborate with a partner who goes beyond products alone.

At Deschacht, we combine engineering, study department and innovative tools into one integrated knowledge platform. This is how you optimize your plans and realize projects that are technically sound, sustainable, and efficient.

Our calculation tools

A correct design starts with proper dimensioning. With our online calculation tools, you can easily calculate volumes, flow rates, and dimensions according to current standards. You can rely on tools for sanitary wastewater dimensioning, stormwater dimensioning, buffer and infiltration volumes, septic tank volumes, oil separator capacity, and drainage channel selection.

This is how you make faster, well-founded choices and avoid calculation errors.

Our research department: from plan to optimal execution

You want to be sure that your design complies with all standards, regulations, and project requirements. Our engineering department supports you every step of the way, from analysis to optimization.

Together with you – and in consultation with the contractor, client, and architect – we analyze your plan and specifications in detail. Based on this, we develop concrete optimizations for the entire sewage system and rainwater management, with respect for the applicable regulations and regional bylaws. 

We actively contribute ideas about:

  • Route and system optimization
  • Sizing and technical correctness
  • Product integration and feasibility
  • Custom solutions where necessary

That is how you get a higher return on your project and avoid surprises on the construction site.

Our solutions - smart products

In addition to engineering, we support you with a broad and innovative product range for water management. Think of solutions for: rainwater management and infiltration, pretreatment and separation, linear drainage, storage and buffering, green roofs, and permeable paving.

Categories

Flat roof

At the start of the design process, essential decisions are made regarding the sustainability, functionality, and aesthetics of a building. Flat roofing is a significant aspect of many modern and traditional buildings.

Tubao buffer and storage tanks

The Tubao buffer and storage tanks offer an effective solution to buffer, redirect, infiltrate, or store rainwater.

Double-walled HDPE storage tanks

For the environmentally friendly storage of water and chemicals.

Ribwall IT Infiltration Pipe

Ribwall IT is an infiltration system developed to return rainwater into the ground.

Infiltration crates

Infiltration crates are intended for storing, transporting, and infiltrating rainwater.

Pluvio infiltration tunnel

Efficient solution for rainwater infiltration.

Oil and petrol separators

Compliant solution to prevent pollution at the source.

Hydrodynamic settler DDSelectâ„¢

Drainage System for Extreme Loads

Some applications, such as airports, seaports, and race and test tracks, require drainage systems that can withstand extremely high loads and frequent use. Load class up to F 900

Light-Duty Drainage System

For stormwater drainage in public and commercial areas such as plazas, green spaces, parks, sports facilities, and bike paths, our designs combine lightweight drainage systems with maximum safety. Load classes A 15 through C 250

Medium-duty drainage system

Aesthetically pleasing, robust, and resistant to corrosive substances, medium-duty drainage systems are the ideal solution for public spaces, parking garages, gas stations, industrial areas, and train stations. Load Class C 250

Heavy-duty drainage system

In areas with heavy traffic, such as logistics centers, bus stations, industrial yards, or truck parking lots, the gutters must be able to withstand the high loads caused by vehicle maneuvers. Load classes D-400 to E-600

Treatment of Contaminated Rainwater

Rainwater from roads, parking garages, or industrial sites may be contaminated. For localized ecological infiltration, it must be treated to remove all impurities and contaminating particles.

Cable Trays

Discover safe and reliable cable duct systems for optimal cable management. Choose from concrete or composite cable ducts such as FASERFIX and RECYFIX PRO, suitable for a variety of applications.

Industrial floor drains two-piece

Two-piece industrial floor drains made of stainless steel.

One-piece industrial floor drains

Stainless steel industrial floor drains, single-piece.

Stainless Steel Drain Channels

Slot drains are a simple system for surface water drainage, where high hydraulic efficiency of the channel is not required.

Grass and gravel grids

The grass mat is made of 100% recycled polyethylene and is 100% recyclable.

Drainix

A sustainable, water-permeable paving, even for heavy traffic

Pumping stations

Deschacht contributes to collective purification by producing pump chambers with submersible pumps to pump wastewater into the sewage network.

The Greenfix intensive green roof is used for planting shrubs, trees, grass, and even vegetable gardens, among other things.

Work with Deschacht BIM objects for sewerage and water management

With the Deschacht BIM library, you can efficiently and accurately develop your sewer system design in 3D. Intelligent objects ensure that conflicts are identified as early as the design phase. This saves you time, helps you avoid errors, and allows you to convert your model directly into construction drawings. Our library is also brand-independent and fully tailored to sewer systems.

Specifications: correctly specified immediately

Create quick and easy specifications that comply with current standards. Our specification texts are tailored to our product range and form the basis for the correct development and execution of your project.
