One of the most in-demand products from Hydro Construction Products is their range of stainless steel drains, grates and trough systems. Stylish, yet highly functional, Hydro Stainless drainage products cater to a wide variety of commercial and residential properties for both indoor and outdoor applications.
In 2015, Hydro Stainless provided the drainage solutions for Woolworths Meat Company's meat processing plant in Melbourne. The $150 million project covered 62,000m2 to establish their primary meat processing and distribution facility in Victoria. Woolworths designated the site for running the retailing operations for their expanding and diversifying fresh and value-added meat products across Eastern Australia.
Hydro Stainless Foodpro 150 was enlisted to meet the high specifications of the modular drainage network required by the facility. The drainage system was engineered using quality marine grade #314 stainless steel that delivers superior performance to standard stainless steel. The stainless steel drains exhibit high strength and resilience to accommodate high volumes of water and debris during wash-down periods as programmed in the system.
Performance Features
Stainless steel drains are highly resistant to water, saline solvents and other corrosive agents to preserve product integrity, thereby promoting long lasting performance. The stainless steel drain system can also be completely dried before production runs. Along with hygienic and non-magnetic properties, these characteristics make Hydro Stainless Foodpro 150 the ideal solution for the temperature controlled meat processing plant.
Professional Service
Bespoke services by Hydro effectively streamlined the implementation of the drainage project. Through expert client consultation, Hydro strategically integrated the stainless steel drains into the system towards maximising service for the long haul. The stainless steel drains incorporated such design elements as a sloped base to increase hydraulic performance; inline sumps to catch debris; and grates to facilitate forklift traffic. The grates are also slip resistant, tested to Class D, for the safety of the workforce.

The Woolworths meat processing plant launched operations in September 2015, receiving substantial publicity for its innovative features. With Hydro Stainless Foodpro 150, Woolworths rests assured that their landmark facility is equipped with a state-of-the-art drainage system. Aside from commercial processing plants, Hydro Stainless Foodpro 150 is also recommended for cold storage, supermarkets and commercial kitchens.
