Architectural drainage designer and manufacturer Stormtech’s latest product, Wave Grate, offers a sustainable drainage solution that combines practicality and design-forward thinking.

The launch of Stormtech’s first aluminium grate has set a precedent for modern Australian drains and bathroom design. Wave Grate is a design-led, high-performance drainage alternative for residential and commercial bathrooms. Not only is the modern design so subtle that it is almost camouflaged, but it is also versatile, lightweight, durable and made from 100 per cent recyclable materials.

The design features a sleek wave pattern with a minimalist finish, and the grate design comes in a refined silver, brass-gold or luxurious satin black.

For a mid-range price point, Wave Grate sets out to exceed expectations in its capabilities and performance. The drain is designed to be comfortable on foot and features an insulator to ensure the aluminium grate and stainless-steel channel are separated to eliminate the potential for corrosion. Wave Grate also features an easy-to-clean grate design, which provides a safe wet area finish as it ‘grabs’ water using surface tension and keeps it off the grate.

Wave Grate’s modern design provides architects, specifiers and industry professionals alike with a high-end, aesthetic option when it comes to drains. Imbued with an impeccable subtlety, the design features a sleek wave pattern with a minimalist finish, and the grate design comes in a refined silver, brass-gold or luxurious satin black. In addition to texture and finish, Wave Grate is also aesthetically pleasing in a more practical sense, as dirt in the channel is hidden, which also ensures high flow rates.

The new Stormtech drainage solution is a uniquely Australian product, designed and manufactured in Australia and made from 100 per cent Australian anodised aluminium.

The new Stormtech drain is an entirely Australian product, designed and manufactured in Australia and made from 100 per cent Australian anodised aluminium.

The anodised aluminium drain achieves a balance of modern, practical and sustainable. As such, Wave Grate drains effortlessly elevate any wet space – both functionally and aesthetically.
