Stormwater Management for Airports

The Importance of Stormwater Management for Airports

Airports are highly sensitive and critical infrastructure that must maintain continuous operations under all weather conditions. Flooding, surface water accumulation, and ineffective drainage can pose severe safety risks, leading to runway closures, operational delays, and increased hazards for aircraft and ground personnel. A well-designed stormwater management system is essential for ensuring airport safety, compliance, and uninterrupted functionality.

The RainSafe Advantage for Airports

RainSafe provides a high-capacity stormwater management system specifically engineered to meet the unique demands of airports, runways, taxiways, and aprons. Our system is designed to store water underground, eliminating surface pooling that can increase the risk of bird strikes and impact aviation safety.

Key Benefits of RainSafe for Airports:

Designed for Extremely Heavy Loads

Fully trafficable and capable of supporting heavy aircraft loads, ground support equipment, and emergency vehicles without compromising structural integrity.

Eliminates Surface Water & Reduces Bird Strike Risk

Prevents standing water accumulation on runways and taxiways, minimizing the attraction of birds that can pose risks to aircraft.

Fully Trafficable for Emergency Vehicles

Ensures uninterrupted access for fire trucks, ambulances, and airport security vehicles, even under extreme weather conditions.

High-Capacity Inlet System

Allows large volumes of stormwater to enter quickly, preventing backups, flash flooding, and runway closures.

Customizable for Multiple Applications

Can be used as an infiltration system, detention tank, or a combination of both, tailored to the specific requirements of an airport.

Long-Term Performance & Minimal Maintenance

RainSafe’s Separation Row effectively removes 100% of large debris and up to 98% of total suspended solids (TSS), ensuring sustained efficiency with minimal clogging.

Enhancing Airport Safety & Structural Integrity

Airports require infrastructure that is resilient, durable, and designed to meet strict safety and regulatory requirements. RainSafe provides:

Uncompromised runway and taxiway safety

By eliminating water accumulation that can affect aircraft operations

Stronger airport infrastructure

With a stormwater system that withstands extreme loads from aircraft and heavy ground equipment

Regulatory compliance

With stormwater management standards for aviation facilities

Reduced maintenance costs

By eliminating open sumps and preventing debris accumulation in drainage systems

Engineered for Extreme Weather Resilience

RainSafe is built to exceed international standards for stormwater detention and infiltration. By improving airport drainage, preventing flooding, and keeping water stored underground, RainSafe ensures safe, dry, and fully operational airport environments year-round.
