3859 UltraTech International has produced a range of transparent covered drain protection pads, which the company says will end guesswork over drain seal effectiveness.

The pads enable contractors to swiftly establish if spills are entering the drain through cracks in the surface, imperfections in the grating, or other irregularities that can break the seal.
