MEA Water Management – Global Expertise in Sustainable Drainage Solutions
MEA WATER MANAGEMENT: Leading the Way in Sustainable Rainwater Solutions
MEA Water Management is among the world’s leading experts in rainwater management, offering comprehensive solutions for point and linear drainage, rainwater infiltration, and treatment. With a broad product range, MEA facilitates the development of sustainable drainage solutions across various environments, including urban centers, industrial zones, and transport sectors. Effective rainwater management is essential for minimizing flood risks, protecting infrastructure, and ensuring dependable water supplies in both urban and rural settings.
Precise Design and Installation for Maximum Efficiency and Durability
High-performance drainage systems begin with precise design, accurate hydraulic calculations, and professional installation. Each project presents unique hydraulic and structural requirements that must be addressed during the planning phase.
MEA supports planners and engineers with:
- Hydraulic dimensioning to ensure optimal water flow during heavy rainfall
- Compliance with installation guidelines for maximum durability
- Digital planning tools such as BIM (Building Information Modeling) to integrate drainage systems seamlessly into complex construction environments
This approach guarantees operational reliability, long service life, and cost efficiency.
Drainage Materials and Their Technical Advantages
MEA drainage channels are manufactured using high-quality, application-specific materials, each offering distinct technical benefits:
GRP (Glass-Fibre Reinforced Plastic)
GRP combines exceptional corrosion resistance, low weight, and high mechanical strength. It is ideal for chemically aggressive or corrosion-prone environments.
- Systems: MEARIN PLUS, MEARIN EXPERT, MEARIN PG EVO
- Benefits: easy handling, long lifespan, high hydraulic efficiency
Applications: parking areas, logistics zones, urban infrastructure, House and garden, Roads and bridges…
Polymer Concrete
Polymer concrete provides excellent load-bearing capacity, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability.
- Systems: MEADRAIN S, MEAKERB, MEADRAIN EN, MEADRAIN DM, MEADRAIN PG, MEAGARD
- Load classes: A15 to F900
Applications: parking areas, logistics zones, urban infrastructure, House and garden, Roads and bridges…
Steel
Steel components are used where maximum strength, durability, and resistance to dynamic loads are required.
Versatile Drainage Systems for a Wide Range of Applications
MEA offers modular drainage solutions that adapt to diverse environments and load requirements:
- MEARIN PLUS & MEARIN EXPERT (GRP)
- MEADRAIN S (polymer concrete)
These systems cover load classes A15 to E600 and are suitable for:
- Landscaping and residential projects
- Urban public spaces
- Car parks and logistics areas
- High-traffic commercial and industrial zones
Their flexibility ensures efficient surface water drainage, durability, and design freedom.
Highly Specialized Drainage Systems for Infrastructure and Transport
MEA develops application-specific drainage systems engineered for demanding environments:
Road and Motorway Drainage
Systems: MEAKERB, MEADRAIN EN / ENS, MEADRAIN DM
- Designed for heavy traffic loads and rapid runoff removal
Urban Drainage – Vandal-Resistant and Accessible
System: MEADRAIN DM CITY
- Ideal for city centers and public spaces where robustness, accessibility, and aesthetics are essential
Bridge Drainage
System: MEAKERB BRIDGE
- Engineered for high structural loads and safe water discharge on bridges
Rail, Tram, and Race Track Drainage
Systems: MEADRAIN EN, MEADRAIN ENS
- Designed to withstand dynamic loads, vibration, and extreme operational conditions
- Port and Terminal Drainage
Heavy load F900 Drainage Channels
Systems: MEADRAIN EN / ENS

MEA Parking Deck Drains for Underground and Multi-storey Car Parks
MEA parking deck drains are specifically developed for use in underground and multi-storey car parks. These specialised drains are engineered for areas exposed to heavy vehicle loads and require long-term weather resistance. Designed to meet load classes up to D 400, they provide high resistance to corrosion and temperature fluctuations. In underground and above-ground parking facilities, where large areas are covered by linear drainage systems, these point drains capture water at key points to support comprehensive area drainage.
Systems: MEARIN PG EVO, MEADRAIN PG
