Prinsco awarded the Plastics Pipe Institute (PPI) Drainage Division Project of the Year for the University of Alabama Stadium SubAir Drainage System

Upgrading the turf at the University of Alabama’s Crimson Tide stadium also required a non-typical underground drainage system. Because it is common for the Tide to be in playoff games, the decision was made to have a system that would also provide heat to support grass growth in the cooler months. Hundreds of feet of both perforated and non-perforated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) Goldflo® dual-wall pipe from Prinsco was used, winning the Project of the Year Award for the PPI member company.
