Take Control of Stormwater Management with the Right Tools
Managing stormwater runoff is a critical part of any sustainable building or landscape design. Whether you're working on a commercial development, a municipal infrastructure project, or retrofitting an existing site, BARR Plastics has the products and support tools you need to get it done efficiently—and done right.
This page is your starting point. Alongside our advanced stormwater management solutions, we offer free, easy-to-use online customer tools that help engineers, contractors, and property managers design systems that meet both performance goals and regulatory requirements.
Why Stormwater Management Matters
Urban and suburban development creates hard surfaces—rooftops, roads, parking lots—that prevent rainwater from soaking into the ground. Without proper systems in place, this runoff can lead to:
- Flooding and erosion
- Infrastructure damage
- Water quality issues from contaminants
- Strain on municipal systems
The goal of stormwater management is to slow, store, treat, and reuse this water in a way that’s safe, sustainable, and cost-effective. That’s where we come in.
BARR Plastics: Your Source for Smart Stormwater Solutions
We provide complete systems for stormwater storage, detention, retention, infiltration, and treatment. Our solutions are engineered to adapt to space constraints, soil conditions, and local stormwater bylaws.
✔️ Modular Block Systems
Our underground modular block systems are perfect for tight spaces or urban areas where you can’t sacrifice surface area. These lightweight but durable systems can be stacked and configured to meet your project’s unique needs.
- Ideal for infiltration, detention, or attenuation
- Flexible layout and scalable volume
- High load-bearing capacity for traffic-rated installations
- Easy to ship and install
Used widely in commercial parking lots, parks, sports fields, and urban infrastructure projects.
✔️ Aboveground and Underground Tank Systems
Tanks provide a simple and cost-effective option for stormwater detention or reuse. Choose from polyethylene or fiberglass models in a range of sizes, with accessories for filtration, overflow control, and access.
- Great for areas with limited excavation space
- Optional features include first-flush diverters and debris filters
- Available in low-profile or vertical styles
- Can be paired with pump systems for reuse
Perfect for rainwater harvesting, fire suppression storage, or controlled slow-release detention systems.
✔️ Filtration and Pre-Treatment Solutions
Protect your system from clogging and your site from pollutants with in-line filters, catch basins, and sediment traps.
- Remove debris, sediment, oils, and floatables
- Extend system lifespan and maintain flow capacity
- Improve water quality before it re-enters the environment
