Floor drains efficiently remove water from surfaces, directing it to the sewage system. Commonly used in kitchens, food processing, and hospitals, they often need to be stainless steel for hygiene standards. In restaurant kitchens, they are crucial near boiling pans to manage cleaning water. Proper drainage enhances safety by reducing the risk of accidents from hot liquids and other hazards.
An anti-slip mesh grid sits over floor drains and drain channels to catch debris while allowing water to flow through. The open mesh design prevents standing water, reducing slip hazards in busy kitchen areas. Its rigid structure supports foot traffic without bending, ensuring stability even when wet.
The grid is placed directly over the drain or channel opening, resting on the surrounding floor surface. Debris such as food scraps, packaging or utensils is trapped on the mesh, while liquid passes through the 30 x 10 mm openings. This keeps drains clear and minimises blockages, reducing maintenance and odour risks. The grid can be lifted out by hand for cleaning or to access the drain below.
Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, the grid resists corrosion and withstands frequent washing. The 400 mm width and 258 mm depth provide coverage for standard floor drains and narrow channels, fitting neatly into the surrounding floor without gaps. The mesh pattern itself creates a textured surface, improving grip underfoot.
The 30 x 10 mm mesh size balances drainage efficiency with debris retention. Larger openings would allow more waste to pass through, while smaller ones could clog too quickly. This size suits environments where food particles, packaging and small utensils are common.
Regular cleaning involves rinsing the grid under running water to remove trapped debris. For stubborn residue, a non-abrasive brush or mild detergent can be used without damaging the stainless steel. The grid should be dried before replacing to prevent water pooling on the floor.
This model is designed for use in public and commercial kitchens, where hygiene and safety standards require durable, easy-to-clean solutions. It fits most standard floor drains and drain channels without additional fixings, relying on its weight and dimensions to stay in place during use.
