Agriculture + Animal
A Thriving Industry
Keep Them All Well and Good
Where animals and plants are in controlled environments, simple steps go a long way to support health and growth. Slot Drain in greenhouses, hydro-culture and animal facilities helps control moisture and humidity levels. They are safer underfoot for people and animals and stronger under equipment than grates. Because they are easier to clean, they save time and money and reduce bacteria and odors, keeping the environment fresher for all.
Slot Drain is the most durable drainage system available. The only parts of the drain exposed are the surface angles, which are made of stainless steel (for stainless steel drain sections) and galvanized steel. The rest of the drain is embedded into the concrete, so it can handle whatever weight you want to put on it. There is no grating, which deteriorates, breaks, bends and needs replacing.
The rough surfaces of brass and iron castings collect and hold germs, fungus-laden scum, and fine debris that usually accompany drain waste, and there is no easy or satisfactory way to clean these rough surfaces.

Strainer Baskets are always recommended to easily prevent any unwanted debris from entering the sewer system, which can cause solid build-up and costly clogs. We even offer locking strainer baskets to add another level of safety to your system.
Although our drains can be designed without the need for a catch basin, they are definitely recommended. Catch basins and strainer baskets make the cleaning process simpler and more efficient by catching solid materials, as well as things that may have been accidentally lost in the drains such as keys or rings..
Stainless steel is steel that is mixed with at least 10% chromium to create an alloy that is corrosion-resistant, as well as bacteria-resistant. This is why all of our products are made of either T304 or T316 stainless steel – to keep your facility safe.
To choose the right floor drain, begin by asking yourself some questions about where the drain will be installed and how it will be used. What application will you be using the drains for? Will there be any heavy forklift or vehicle traffic running over them? Will any harsh chemicals reach the drains? What sanitation conditions must the drains meet? The answers to these questions will help to determine the best product for your needs. If you are still unsure, contact our drainage experts today.
