The SmartFlap technology provides possibly the best yet solution to reducing drag caused by the turbulent wake at the back of a truck. It uses actively controlled flaps of similar size those of currently available systems, which operate at a slow speed over a narrow range of movement, delivering fuel savings of up to 9%. The demonstrated drag reduction and potentially low cost of the system make it a cost effective investment for truck operators. Also, the size of the flaps and ease of installation ensure that they will be robust and unobstrusive for loading operations as well as on the road. Find out more

As societies become increasingly urbanised, there is a vulnerability to flooding because impermeable infrastructure are wholly incapable of absorbing rainfall. Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS), such as permeable pavements, have been developed to mitigate flooding risks. Find out more
