Drainage Management in a Commercial Kitchen

In order for a commercial kitchen to run efficiently and safely, effective drainage is essential. Operationally, it helps prevent accidents and hygienically it contributes to safe production and preparation of food. 

With more than 60 years industry experience, ACO is a global producer and supplier of stainless steel drainage products to support the implementation of best practice in commercial kitchens.

Food Storage Area

These areas require an occasional clean down either as part of a planned programme or in case of spillage. In many cases, the capacity of the floor drain need only accommodate low flows.

The Production Area

The production area is the busy heart of a kitchen (where potentially most slips and falls can occur) and requires the strategic positioning of floor drainage to aid in the removal of water that is being used in, or discharges from, specialist cooking equipment such as bratt pans, boiling pans and combination ovens.

The Washing and Disposal Area

In the washing and disposal area, floor drainage features prominently as these areas are traditionally the wettest in a kitchen operation.

ACO offers a range of drainage products, designed to cope with every situation in a busy kitchen environment:

  • Modular 100 is a range of stainless steel linear channels
  • Custom stainless steel linear channels are available for specialist applications
  • ACO Gully is a range of bucket traps and floor wastes are available for point drainage applications

All products are developed and produced with an uncompromising commitment to health, safety and hygiene.
