The NDS Story
In 1972, National Diversified Sales, Inc. manufactured the first plastic catch basin and a tradition of innovation and water management solutions began. Through the years, we have maintained our position as the market leader for residential and commercial markets by continuing to innovate within the industry and have expanded our business across multiple categories and globally.
Today, NDS is the industry's primary source for solutions in Storm Water Management, Efficient Landscape Irrigation, and Flow Management Valves for the residential and commercial markets.

NDS makes the drainage system end to end: channel drains (Dura Slope and Mini Channel) carry surface water off driveways, patios and pool decks; Spee-D and catch basins collect water at low spots; and pop-up emitters with EZ-Drain French-drain bundles move it underground and away from the house.
Cap each inlet with the right grate, then connect the system with NDS drainage pipe and fittings. Browse the full range under Drainage.
A channel (trench) drain runs in a line to catch sheet flow across driveways, patios and pool decks; a catch basin is a box that collects water at a single low spot and ties into a pipe. Many yards use both.
A pop-up emitter sits at the end of a drain line; water pressure lifts the cap to discharge at the surface, then it closes to keep out debris, mulch and pests.
EZ-Drain is NDS’s pre-fabricated French drain — perforated pipe wrapped in aggregate and fabric — that replaces gravel-and-pipe trenching to move water away from the foundation.
Match them to expected flow: small residential runs use 3 in. and 4 in. pipe, while larger catchment uses bigger channels and basins. Local rainfall and slope drive the sizing.
