The groundwork for flood prevention at a new Lidl supermarket in Bristol took a significant step forward as SDS completed the installation of a crucial surface water attenuation tank. The 684m³ capacity tank serves as a typical example of SDS's careful planning and engineering prowess, essential for mitigating flood risks in urban environments

Newlands residential development at Berewood is the largest of its type in the UK. SDS worked with consulting engineers Mayer Brown to establish the key design criteria for the site’s sustainable drainage systems. Surface water run-off is cleaned through ditches and swales before entering SDS's purpose-built attenuation tanks. Water is treated to a high quality before discharge into a

The plant will generate circa 27.8MW of green electricity, sufficient to supply up to 50,000 homes, thereby reducing the region’s carbon footprint and reliance on imported fossil fuels. Any energy not used by the Park’s resident businesses and activities is sent to the electricity grid to power homes across the region. SDS was tasked to ensure the

Spanning approximately 20 hectares, The Quarry site in Erith was originally mined for gravel and loam, subsequently used as a landfill site for bricks, masonry and other inert building materials and finally lay neglected to become overgrown with brambles and invasive Japanese knotweed. The site is designated a Grade One Site of Borough Importance

Working with Veolia Water, SDS implemented, over an extended period of several years, a series of surface water drainage systems, largely comprising of GEOlight® attenuation tanks and soakaways, for the MoD's Salisbury Plain encampment, which provides housing and facilities for approximately 4300 personnel

SDS was commissioned to provide a sustainable drainage system for the new Volkswagen Financial Services (UK) headquarters in Milton Keynes. SDS installed over 2500m2 of permeable block paving, two GEOlight® tanks, channel drainage and nine vortex flow controls.
