Update – Food Production Drainage Systems
Allproof has released a major update to its commercial food production drainage range, enhancing performance, compliance, and ease of specification for Australian projects. Designed for commercial kitchens, food processing plants, and beverage production facilities, this range includes stainless-steel linear drainage channels and sumps engineered to meet the demanding hygiene, durability, and safety requirements of the industry.
The update introduces the new Modular Channel (MC) Series alongside testing and design improvements to the full range.
MC Series – Flexible Modular Drainage
The MC Series is a modular stainless steel channel drain system with sump options available in standard sizes, making it easy to assemble to suit the specific needs of large-scale or complex projects.
Key features include:
- Standardised lengths – Channels available in 1m or 2m sections for easier transport, handling, and installation.
- Flexible layout design – Width, length, and depth variations to match site-specific hydraulic requirements.
- Efficient hydraulic performance – Joiners allow gradual depth increase towards sumps.
- Versatile sump configurations – End terminal sumps or continuous junction sumps for extended runs.
- Extended run capacity – 2m sections can accommodate up to 6m between sumps, with mirrored layouts providing 10m between sumps. The continuous sump junction allows unlimited system lengths.
By using a system built from standardised components, specifying, ordering, and installing becomes faster, more accurate, and cost-effective.
Slot (SL) Series – Now Standardised
The Slot Series has been revised to offer standardised channel lengths, streamlining the design and ordering process. This highly adaptable system can still be customised for unique layouts by working with the Allproof design team, ensuring compliance with both functional and aesthetic requirements.
Safety & Compliance Enhancements
Allproof has expanded slip resistance testing in accordance with AS 4586, providing both R and P classifications for enhanced workplace safety:
- Wedge Wire (WW) Grate – R11 / P2 rating
- Slip Resistant Ladder Grate – R13 / P5 rating
This ensures suitability for fast-paced kitchens and wet production environments, reducing the risk of slips and falls.
Other Design Improvements
- CK Series outlet repositioned – Now centrally located for easier DWV connection and reduced pipework complexity.
- Double strainer baskets – Standard across the range for improved debris capture and system hygiene.
- Epoxy-filled safety edges – Standard for added safety and durability.
Allproof’s updated Food Production Drainage Systems provide Australian food and beverage facilities with high-performance, compliant, and hygienic drainage solutions that are quick to specify, simple to install, and built to last.
