Case Study – Boot Wash

Designing, manufacturing, and installing stainless steel equipment for a food manufacturers’ manufacturing expansion.

Overview

Aqualine by Alway was commissioned to manufacture and install a hygienic boot wash area for a gourmet sausage manufacturer in their production facility.

This project was part of a larger factory expansion project aimed at increasing the efficiency, output and logistics of the gourmet sausage manufacturer’s production capabilities. Aqualine by Alway has manufactured and installed all the drainage and kerbing for the entire construction project.

The boot wash area needed to enhance food hygiene standards by ensuring thorough cleaning protocols and minimising cross-contamination risks. Our solution featured custom-designed drainage systems and grates to fit around the bespoke boot wash solution.

Project Details

The boot wash area was outfitted with tailored drainage and grids to capture and divert wastewater efficiently, offering a hygienic, easy to maintain and robust stainless steel solution. In the expanded production area, Aqualine by Alway manufactured and installed kerbing and specialised drainage to facilitate easy wash-downs and maintain a clean environment. This setup minimised the risk of standing water, which can compromise hygiene in food processing areas.

Collaboration & Safety

Throughout the project, Aqualine worked alongside multiple contractors, ensuring seamless installation and adhering to strict safety protocols and project timescales. Our team maintained clear communication and collaborated with other contractors involved in the project to adapt to changing project requirements and seamlessly deliver the work required.

Conclusion

The result was a bespoke, easy-to-maintain drainage and kerbing solution that met the gourmet sausage production facility’s rigorous hygiene and quality requirements.
