Breweries and Beverage production

Hygienic Drainage

As one of the world’s leading commercial drainage specialists, ACO understands the critical role that drainage plays in a successful commercial beverage production business. We appreciate that product safety, hygiene and cost control are all vital factors yet we also understand that for many, drainage is out of sight and therefore out of mind. 

Our Focus on the brewing and beverage industry

We are familiar with HACCP and the prerequisites that underpin it, working closely with industry experts to better understand the risks of sub-optimal drainage. 

As the first drainage company to become a member of the European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group (EHEDG), we also play an active role in the development of future best practice guidelines helping to raise standards and reduce business risk for the food processing companies.

Providing bespoke as well as standard drainage solutions, we can help you optimise hygiene if you are a brewer or beverage producer who needs to deal with high flow rates and high loads,

We are as passionate about findng the right drainage solution as you are about your brewing!

 

Our Hygiene First Channels

Through extensive research and development, we have become the first company to incorporate the latest hygienic design principles normally used for food and drink production machinery into commercial drainage.  

Our Hygiene First drainage channels when compared to normal channels provide increased cleanability and prevent bacteria build up. The profile of the channel edges provides increased durable and stable transmission from traffic over the channel to prevent floor cracking and the chance of bacteria growth. 

To view the tests of our Hygiene First channels watch the videos below. To learn more about how we've helped organisations throughout the beverage sector, click the case studies on the right of this page.
