Key Features and Benefits
- Fully retrofittable – Easily installed in existing gully systems, making it a versatile solution for both new and ongoing projects.
- Ease of maintenance – The system’s design facilitates easy access for cleaning and maintenance, ensuring its effectiveness over time and reducing the likelihood of system failures.
- Fully reusable and recyclable – Its durability allows for multiple uses across different sites or phases of a project, while its steel construction ensures that it can be fully recycled at the end of its life cycle, reducing waste and environmental impact.
- Health and safety lifting points – Designed with keyway points to support Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) guidelines. This ensures that the bucket can be safely and efficiently handled, mitigating the risk of injury during installation, maintenance, and removal.
- Environmental compliance – By capturing silt and debris at the source, the Armadillo Silt Shield helps construction sites avoid the discharge of polluted water into natural watercourses, thus reducing the risk of potential fines and environmental harm.
- Robust construction – Manufactured from welded steel and designed to withstand the harsh conditions of construction sites, providing long-term reliability.
- Zero impact on waterway area – Armadillo Silt Shield will only temporarily restrict the gully grating’s clear opening, unlike competing systems, that leave the locator plate in situ after the silt bucket or bag is removed.
- BS EN 124 compliance – Armadillo Silt Shield has been designed and manufactured in accordance with the relevant requirements of BS EN 124-2:2015, Clause 6.9.
