Sqid Stormwater Quality Device

SQID® stands for Stormwater Quality Improvement Device. This simple and innovative product provides an inexpensive way to guard against pollutants and other debris from being washed into waterways.

Designed to provide a stormwater filtration system that is hydraulically efficient, easy to install and simple to maintain, the SQID range of devices are also economical. By reducing blockage risks further down the line, there is less requirement to replace damaged pipes. Pipes are often damaged by the scouring effect of hard rubbish. Large particles of concrete or sediment can be carried at high velocity inside pipes, thereby chipping away at the concrete and PVC interior.

Choosing to install a SQID at the source of pollution helps reduce overall repair costs in the long run.

By removing litter, sediment and other pollutants from being transported to sensitive aquatic ecosystems, the SQID® traps help to improve storm water quality. All kinds of pollutants and rubbish such as cigarette butts, bags, broken bottles, wrappers and straws are stopped at the source. All these items and many more have been found trapped in SQID® systems.

Along with simply catching litter, these simple traps also reduce the amount of loose vegetation in stormwater systems, which depletes the oxygen levels in the water as it decomposes thus contributing to blue-green algae blooms.

The SQID® range of stormwater litter traps is designed with durability in mind, ensuring long-term performance in the field. Made from UV stabilised polyethylene and stainless steel, they are made of 100% recyclable materials.
