Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc., a provider of innovative water management solutions in the stormwater and onsite septic wastewater industries, has recently celebrated the opening of the $65 million ADS Engineering and Technology Center. The 110,000-square-foot research and testing facility is the largest stormwater engineering center in the world and is located in Hilliard, Ohio, near the company’s headquarters.

“The ADS Engineering and Technology Center is dedicated to product engineering, materials science –– including recycled plastics –– and manufacturing technologies with the express purpose of developing advanced stormwater solutions that manage water and protect our communities,” said ADS President and CEO Scott Barbour. “Bringing our team of engineers, scientists, and technicians together in this state-of-the-art facility allows new opportunities for collaboration and innovation in how we design and develop products, materials and manufacturing technologies to meet the stormwater management needs of customers and communities.”

The ADS Engineering and Technology Center will include:

  • A product development lab focused on the full range of a product’s lifecycle.
  • A 90,000 gallon, closed-loop recyclable water system allowing ADS to replicate real-world conditions by sending water through products under scenarios that the company can alter and control.
  • A hydraulics lab that supports ADS’ water treatment businesses including separation, traditional filtration and low-impact development filtration.
  • An advanced technology lab for manufacturing, controls and engineering prototyping.
  • Materials science laboratories providing extensive performance-based materials test capability.

“ADS is a proven innovator that recycled 540 million pounds of plastic last year, roughly equivalent to recycling nearly 5 billion plastic bottles. This effort minimizes environmental impact and helps create sustainable infrastructure products,” said Lt. Governor Husted. “The research at this new facility will advance technologies that preserve and enhance our natural resources and create 200 new jobs in Ohio.”
