Aluline's experience of surveying, specifying, supplying, installing and maintaining
Grease Traps in commercial kitchens, such as hotels is unrivalled. Its our combination
of years of experience twinned with technological advances in biotechnology that enable
us to produce truly efficient and cost effective managed maintenance systems for drains
in commercial kitchens.
We offer a one-stop service for hoteliers, understanding not only your needs but ensuring
that the drainage solutions we provide comply with the necessary Drainage Regulations. As
part H of the Drainage Regulations, commercial premises which prepare hot food must have
a Grease Interceptor Trap fitted within the drainage system. These types of premises create
a unique problem for drainage systems, for example many country venues with no mains connections
have installed - Treatment Plants/Septic Tanks.
Problems that can occur require management to be aware and confident of how to manage their
drainage system. The selection and application of Grease Traps/Separators/Filters which we
supply, takes into account the management and maintenance plan for the kitchen. It is important
that advice is gathered before specifying, even the smallest and cheapest model. This is because
changes in waste regulations and environment legislation will make the disposal of waste a
critical task for all professionals, whether through pipes or into landfill bins. The cost of
disposal and treatment can only rise and therefore must be budgeted for. Charges or fines for
contravening waste regulations can run into thousands of pounds. Therefore "prevention" (
Waste Removal At Source) is a much more cost effective solution.

Aluline is one of the World's foremost commercial drainage manufacturers, producing
Grease Interceptor Traps and Biological Drain Dosing Systems for UK, European and
Worldwide commercial, military and industrial kitchens.
The Environmental impact of commercial kitchen waste is significant. As is the rising
cost of disposal and the potential for water board environment agency's or environmental
health/planning officers, imposing charges/prohibition notices/fines on customers for
not complying with waste directives.
To date specification/sizing has been left to builders/plumbers/salesmen. If diligence
is not shown through the drainage element of a contract being ignored, this may come
back to haunt professionals and insurance claims are possible. It is incumbent on
professional designer to provide for disposal and storage of waste from any commercial
building within the current guidelines.

We offer a one-stop service for those with kitchens in Institutional, MOD, and Government
establishments, understanding not only your needs but ensuring that the drainage solutions
we provide comply with the necessary Drainage Regulations. As part H of the Drainage
Regulations; commercial premises which prepare hot food must have a Grease Interceptor
Trap fitted within the drainage system. Best value (Duty of care) is the critical objective
of any institutional officer.
It is therefore important to comply with regulations and use cost effective solutions that
actually work. Emphasis is on cost, service and the impact on the environment. The creation
of long term sustainability is the aim of every organisation and the care of our environment
is a responsibility of all organisations and departments.
The obligation to comply with all waste/hygiene/environmental directives makes it fundamental
to ensure that best practice and sustainable solutions are used to reduce adverse environmental
impact, caused by waste we produce.

For Contractors, designers and architects, the design and specification of commercial
kitchen drainage to meet planning and water board acceptance can be a demanding and
time consuming task. Aluline's products and services meet the requirements of drainage
regulations, local authorities, water authorities and cost managers. Our on site
experience gives valuable practical assistance to architect and customer alike, across
every size and type of commercial, industrial or military installation imaginable.
The temptation of engineers and contractors to ignore equipment or operations carried
out with their specific design/work area is understandable. The design and operation
of treatment plants is concerned with tank and catchments tanks preceding main
treatment area. Legislation is in the pipeline which will make the cost of disposal
of waste from treatment plants raise considerably. It is incumbent on all to ensure
that plants operate to their full potential, reducing sewage sludge to minimum for
disposal. To this end consideration must be given from tap to treatment plant.
The onsite monitoring of tanks and pumping stations is a costly and time consuming
business. The introduction of our septic watch monitor will give live and historic
readings of top-bottom sludge levels and temperature; this can be accessed on site
or by telephone modem to computer anywhere in the world.

The ship is essentially an enclosed village with all the drainage and disposal
problems faced by land based sites. The necessity to keep accurate records on
disposal of waste from ships focuses the mind on on-ship treatment and storage.
The charges for many types of disposal can only rise as land based environmentalists
introduce stricter and more stringent legislation on waste disposal management.
The "ship environment" will be a serious proposal with all crew and passengers being
educated into reducing waste on board, (probably earning an environmental star for doing so).
