Wavin QuickStream Siphonic Roof Drainage System helped build a sustainable and flood-proof manufacturing facility for the BMW 5 Series @ BMW's Dadong Plant in Shenyang, China
Climate change increases the likelihood that our cities may experience flood-like conditions, putting infrastructure and facilities at risk of suffering significant losses. In order to address these problems, we must ensure that our infrastructure and installations are secure and resilient to climate change, as well as that they are secured and resilient using sustainable methods.
Smart management of excessive rainfall is key to securing installations.
One of the effects of climate change is excessive rainfall, which causes water to pool in some places or simply results in a full-fledged flood-like situation, causing an instant emergency. As a result, it's critical to manage the excess water in a way that prevents harm to the infrastructure and offers liveable circumstances for those who live there. For cities to be built to handle future issues brought on by climate change, finding a smart and sustainable way to manage excess water due to unwarranted rain is essential.
Why was Wavin’s QuickStream Siphonic Roof Drainage System the most optimal solution to create a flood-safe manufacturing facility at BMW's Dadong Plant in Shenyang, China?
Recently, Wavin successfully completed a major Wavin QuickStream Siphonic Roof Drainage System project at the BMW Dadong Plant in Shenyang, China, which is a global supply centre for the BMW 5 Series. Flexibility, cost efficiency, and reliability were key elements in the success of the project, which involved installing a Wavin QuickStream siphonic roof drainage system covering a catchment area of nearly one million square metres. Wavin’s QuickStream Siphonic Roof Drainage system offered the most optimal solution for the project due to its advanced technology that efficiently manages and collects excess rainfall water from the rooftop and channelizes it properly to prevent the collection of water and avoid flood-like situations.
This solution ensured that rainwater was discharged more quickly and efficiently from the rooftop. Furthermore, this efficient solution took up less space and reduced installation costs, making it the most optimal solution when setting up facilities where managing excess rainfall from the rooftop is a key concern.
Wavin offered exceptional pre- and post-sales assistance, along with top-notch goods and high-quality construction. Our BIM system was able to lower total construction expenses. To ensure the project's orderly progression, the construction team was able to address all concerns and overcome every obstacle. In fact, the client approved it the first time without a single leak point. This project has also win the prestigious “Luban Award” which is the highest accolade in the Chinese construction industry.
Why is Wavin QuickStream Siphonic Roof Drainage System the standout choice to set up a flood-proof roof drainage system?
- Safe and easy to install.
- It offers an excellent flow of water being channelled through the pipes without air due to its small pipe sizes.
- Smaller pipe dimensions, fewer roof outlets and downpipes, and shorter total pipe lengths all reduce installation costs.
- Its specially designed bracketing system ensures a quick and safe installation and is a major, convincing argument for working with Wavin.
- It quickly and efficiently discharges rainwater (even at peak rainfall conditions and saves on build costs and frees up space inside the building.
- With Wavin BIM design team it reduces the overall construction costs.
