Floor Drains

Floor Drains are essential for safe, hygienic water management in busy commercial kitchens, bars and food production areas. This range includes stainless steel floor grids, connectable slotted channels and matching drain units to move water away quickly and efficiently. Designed for heavy foot traffic and frequent washdowns, these drainage systems help prevent puddles, slips and standing water. Robust construction and precise engineering ensure long-lasting performance in demanding Irish hospitality environments.

• Stainless steel floor grids in a variety of lengths and widths to suit different kitchen layouts and drainage points.
• Connectable slotted channel sections for creating continuous drainage runs along cooklines, prep areas or dishwash zones.
• Dedicated drain boxes with single or dual exits for efficient connection to existing waste pipework.
• Heavy-duty designs built to withstand trolleys, equipment and constant staff movement without warping.
• Hygienic, easy-to-clean surfaces that support regular washdowns and help maintain food safety standards.
• Practical solutions for wet areas such as pot wash, dishwash, cold rooms and back-of-house prep spaces.

How to choose the right Floor Drains

• Measure the area to be drained and select floor grids and channels that provide full coverage along cooklines, sinks and wash areas.
• Check load requirements and choose heavy-duty stainless steel options where trolleys, racks or equipment will pass over the drain.
• Plan your drainage layout, deciding between individual floor drains or connectable slotted channels for continuous runs.
• Confirm outlet size, number of exits and compatibility with your existing waste pipework before ordering.
• Consider cleaning access, opting for removable grids and open channel designs that make routine hygiene tasks easier.
• Match drain positioning to workflow so water flows away from walkways, storage areas and electrical equipment.

Care and maintenance

• Remove floor grids regularly to clear trapped food debris, grease and dirt from channels and drain boxes.
• Clean stainless steel components with non-abrasive detergents and soft brushes to avoid scratching the surface.
• Flush drains with hot water and suitable degreasers to prevent blockages and unpleasant odours.
• Inspect joints, seals and connections periodically to ensure there are no leaks or loose fittings.
• Schedule deep cleans in high-use areas such as dishwash and pot wash zones to maintain drainage performance.
• Train staff to report slow-draining areas early so issues can be addressed before they affect service.
