StormHandler™ – Advanced Stormwater Protection

StormHandler™ is CBM's engineered stormwater management system designed specifically for construction sites, industrial areas, and urban developments. This modular treatment device efficiently captures, treats, and releases stormwater runoff while meeting stringent environmental regulations.

High-Efficiency Vortex Filtration

StormHandler™ utilises proprietary vortex hydrodynamic separation technology that creates a high-velocity swirling action within the unit. This powerful vortex forces heavier sediments, oils, and debris toward the perimeter while cleaner water flows centrally to the outlet, delivering up to 80% total suspended solids (TSS) removal without moving parts or power requirements. Contractors value this reliable, low-maintenance solution that consistently meets municipal stormwater discharge standards.

Key Benefits

background ribbon

Superior pollutant removal

Achieves 80% TSS reduction, 40% oil removal, and significant trash capture, exceeding typical regulatory requirements for stormwater discharge permits.

Easy installation and maintenance

Pre-fabricated polyethylene units install rapidly in standard precast concrete manholes; sediment baskets lift out for quick cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our CBM Concrete Solutions product line covers a wide range of project needs – from self-consolidating and high-workability flatwork mixes to fibre-reinforced, accelerated strength, extended workability, and durability-focused formulations. All mixes are performance-based and CSA-compliant. Our technical team can also develop custom mix designs for projects with specific structural or environmental requirements.

We work directly with engineers and contractors before the first truck arrives – reviewing exposure class, strength development, pumping distances, and workability windows to build a concrete program around your project, not around a standard product. The Gordie Howe International Bridge, the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, and 141 Bay are examples of that process at work.

Yes. Every customer has access to the same ready mix concrete solutions and quality-controlled mixes that go into our largest builds. Get in touch with your local CBM representative to discuss your requirements.

CBM is proud to be part of Votorantim Cimentos, one of the largest building materials companies in the world. Our VC Way is the operating philosophy that runs across the entire Votorantim Cimentos family – and it shapes how our teams work every day. For our customers, that means decisions made close to the job, clear communication from order to delivery, and accountability that does not stop once the truck leaves the plant. The work we did at Ripley’s Aquarium, the Gordie Howe International Bridge, and other countless projects reflects exactly that – sustained technical collaboration, dependable execution, and a standard of care that holds across the full life of a project.

Single units treat flows from 0.5 L/s up to 50 L/s depending on model; multiple units can be manifolded for higher capacity applications.

Completely passive hydrodynamic separation—no electricity, pumps, filters, or backwashing required. Gravity-powered vortex works continuously.

Yes, certified compliant with Ontario MOE stormwater management criteria and accepted by major municipalities for construction site discharge permits.
