Drainage System for National Bakery

Project Overview

A major UK bakery approached Aqualine by Alway to provide the drainage system for an expansion to their production facilities. With increased output and new equipment being introduced, the site required a high-performance stainless steel drainage system capable of handling greater volumes of wash-down water while maintaining strict hygiene standards across the enlarged manufacturing area.

Design & Survey

Our team carried out a detailed survey of the new production layout, assessing water flow requirements, equipment positioning, and operational traffic. Using this information, we developed a bespoke 50-metre drainage solution, comprising 11 drainage channels, 11 outlets, and 4 gullies, designed to integrate seamlessly into the bakery’s upgraded manufacturing environment. The layout was designed to optimise flow efficiency, support efficient cleaning routines, and provide a long lasting drainage system.

Manufacture

Once the design was approved, the drainage system was manufactured in-house by our specialist fabrication team. Producing the system ourselves ensures absolute control over build quality, accuracy, and hygiene performance. Each channel and component was built to withstand demanding food-production environments, providing a durable, easy-to-clean drainage system.

Installation

The installation was completed by our dedicated on-site installation team, who fitted the drainage system in carefully planned phases in line with the construction project schedule. Each section was installed with precise alignment and fully sealed joints to deliver a hygienic, food-safe finish. This ensures the drainage system was installed to the highest standards, and with no disruption to the demanding construction timescales.

Summary

This commercial stainless steel drainage system provides our client with a high-specification, future-proof drainage system that supports their expanded facilities through effective wastewater management and ongoing hygiene routines.
