Orca & Galvin Partnership
New distribution partnership in WA
We’re excited to announce our distribution partnership with Galvin Concrete in WA. There are great synergies between our businesses, as locally owned Australian manufacturers. Orca’s polymer concrete drainage solutions are a natural bolt-on to Galvin’s precast concrete utility products plus access to additional supply channels via the wider Galvin’s Group, particularly Galvin’s Plumbing.
The partnership offers opportunities for Orca’s products to be supplied for drainage, chemical spill retention, electrical and data installations in the very active WA market. Galvin’s also see the growing opportunity in the construction and local government sectors for delivering locally made product with recycled content. Orca’s polymer concrete channels and pits tick this box with all polymer concrete products made in Australia. Further around 25% of the dry components of our polymer concrete consisting of recycled glass feedstock in place of virgin quarried sand.
The Galvin team have exacting standards, plus the service and skills honed from over 70 years’ experience in the WA market. All at ORCA are looking forward to a great partnership.
Orca’s polymer concrete products are an Australian first, manufactured locally using recycled glass feedstock instead of virgin quarried minerals.
The recycled material acts as a bonded, high compressive strength filler, optimising the product’s design to create a stronger polymer concrete channel.
Polymer concrete channels offer a high strength alternative to Portland cement products, plus they deliver significant weight advantages and manual handling benefits.
Two channel profiles are available. A Slab profile for installations with depth restrictions in 60mm, 80mm and 100mm depths.
Or a V-profile in a range of depths from 120mm to 325mm.
Manufactured to Australian and European quality standards our drainage and electrical channels and pits range work with Orca’s stainless steel, galvanized steel and ductile iron grates and access covers.
