Product catalog summary
Introduction
Kent Stainless, established in 1982, specializes in manufacturing stainless steel drainage channels and gullies. The company has innovated its product line to include the Kent Superclean Hygienic Drainage Channel and Gullies, catering to sectors such as Brewery, Drinks, Dairy, Meat, Food, and Pharmaceuticals.

Design Features
  • Capacity: The drainage system must handle simultaneous washdown, run-off, and discharge, accommodating extreme events and future facility changes. Avoid ponding to prevent hygiene and safety issues.
  • Cleaning: Ensure easy access for thorough cleaning.
  • Durability: The system must withstand everyday traffic, extreme events, hot water, chemicals, and other processing plant operations.
  • Flooring Interface: Minimize gaps between the channel and floor to prevent water ingress and bacterial growth.
  • Eliminate Joints: Use shorter channel runs to avoid joints, which can be delivered in one piece.
  • Workmanship: Select experienced contractors for hygienic environments.
  • Avoid Corners: Use rounded channel ends and gullies to prevent cracks and bacterial traps.
  • Water Consumption: Reduce water use with a tapered, presloped channel body.
  • Hygiene: Minimize bacterial growth risk at all points.

Product Specifications
  • Drainage Channel Range: Sizes range from 1175mm to 5965mm, with various configurations for different applications.
  • Gully Range: Includes bottom and side outlet gullies, with customizable features for specific industries.

Additional Features
  • Concrete retaining tangs for secure floor connection.

SUPERCLEAN HYGIENIC DRAINAGE SYSTEM-1

SUPERCLEAN HYGIENIC DRAINAGE SYSTEM SUPERCLEAN HYGIENIC DRAINAGE SYSTEM Kent Stainless is a manufacturer of Stanless Steel Drainage Channels and Gullies since 1982. Recognising the need for continuous improvement from our client base in the Brewery, Drinks, Dairy, Meat, Food and Pharmaceutical Sector, we have revolutionised the design of our industrial; channels with the addition of the Kent Superclean Hygienic Drainage Channel and Gullies. Post install changes to a drainage system is very costly and can involve replacing the entire floor – getting it right 1st time with a view to current and long term future use of the facility is worth the extra effort at the design stage. Our stainless steel drainage system is manufactured with a 30 year design life and can be expected to last a multiple of this – and indeed can outlast the building structure itself. Capacity Drains must ensure all washdown, run-off and discharge can be handled simultaneously and allow for extreme events and possible future change of use of facility. Avoid all ponding nearby which could be unhygienic, unsightly and slippery with implications for bacterial growth and H&S issues. Complete the project with Bottom Outlet and Side Outlet Gullies Kent Superclean Hygienic Drainage Channel Range Product Code Start Depth Washdown Area 1175mm / 46” minimum size, 2612mm / 103” standard size for 3.0m / 10ft crate, 5965mm / 235” suggested max size For Central Gully change to CG For MicroClean Electropolsihed change to KMHC Kent Superclean Hygienic Gully Range Product Code Body Depth Washdown Area Design Features to Consider Cleaning Drains must ensure the best possible access for cleaning thoroughly. Durability • Drains must withstand the loading of everyday traffic including small hard wheels from tray racks and bins; • withstand the loading of extreme events, • withstand hot water discharge; • withstand chemicals and disinfectants used in cleaning; • withstand run off with chemicals / acids / oil / fats / alkali used in the processing plant operations. Flooring Interface Drains must minimise at every opportunity the possibility of gaps appearing between the channel and the floor finish – which can lead to an ingress of water and become an area of growth for bacteria. Eliminate Joints Consider 6nr 3000mm runs or 3nr 6000mm runs instead of a continuous 18000mm run. 3000mm and 6000mm channel lengths can be delivered complete in 1 piece with no joints. Workmanship Choose a flooring contractor with proven experience in hygienic environments. Avoid Corners • Sharp 90 degree corners are often the 1st point of emergence of a crack which then can extend down along the length of the interface between the floor and the channel; • Round Drain Gullies minimise this and have been on the market for decades; • Rounded Channel ends are a new development from Kent Stainless which minimise this on channels; • Following Guideline 44 from the EHEDG’s Hygienic Design of Buildings Kent Stainless recommend that the utmost hygiene standard to be achieved in drainage channels is the use of rounded channel ends and rounded gullies; • In addition the grating edges on the Kent Hygiene Channel and Gully system ensure that there is no continuous flat vertical support bar on the grating edge which could ‘sandwich’ debris against the inner channel wall and prove more difficult to wash away; • This also stops debris from getting caught between normal grating side bars and channel. Water Consumption Minimise washdown water use with a tapered, presloped channel body. Hygiene At every point minimise the risk of growth of bacteria to avoid contamination. Made in IRELAND
