Wavedrain – The Smart Drainage Solution for Schools

Designed for safety, built to last.

Creating safe, inclusive, and functional learning environments goes beyond the classroom… and that includes managing surface water in high-traffic areas like walkways and building entrances. Mascot Engineering’s Wavedrain is ideally suited for schools thanks to its unique combination of safety, durability, and performance.

Designed to be installed at door thresholds and other key transition zones, Wavedrain combines performance with safety in one smart drainage system. At 100mm wide, it’s perfectly suited to tight spaces while still offering effective surface water management.

The 6mm heelproof slot design prevents trips and entrapments, making it ideal for areas frequented by children, staff, and visitors alike. The narrow slot width not only protects high heels and small feet, but also allows smooth passage for wheelchairs, walking frames, and mobility aids, supporting accessibility across the entire school site.

Importantly, the 6mm grating gap also aligns with AS 4685, the Australian Standard for playground equipment and surfacing, ensuring finger entrapment safety—a key consideration for environments with young children.

Manufactured from durable ductile iron, the Wavedrain grating is built to endure decades of daily use—including wear and tear from foot traffic, cleaning equipment, and the unpredictable Australian weather. Its unique wave pattern not only adds visual interest, but also delivers excellent slip resistance, making it safe for all users—even in wet conditions.

For added peace of mind, Wavedrain is boltdown as standard, helping prevent unauthorised access or removal—essential in school environments where safety and security are paramount.

From kindergartens to large secondary and tertiary campuses, Technodrain Wavedrain is a smart investment in long-term safety and performance. And like all Mascot Engineering products, it’s designed and manufactured to meet the load ratings of Australian standards and the expectations of modern educational environments.
