Press release from the issuing company

Global Drain Technologies Stands Ready to Support Safe, Hygienic Practices with Innovative Drainage Solutions

Global Drain Technologies (GDT), a leader in innovative drainage solutions, highlights the importance of hygiene and the positive impact of sanitary drainage systems in food processing facilities through an innovative range of products. GDT’s FoodSafe brand includes a lineup of products engineered to meet the stringent requirements of food and beverage processing plants. Among these are the Slot Dog, Slot Hog, Cleaning Brushes, and the Tamper-Proof Magnetic Strainer—each purpose-built to enhance food safety through effective drainage and sanitation systems.

As recent food safety concerns, including outbreaks and facility audits, heighten the focus on hygiene and contamination prevention, GDT’s range of FoodSafe drainage products offers crucial solutions to maintain cleanliness and minimize risks in food processing environments.

The Slot Dog offers a versatile solution for cleaning Slot Drains directly and efficiently. With its hassle-free quick-release mechanism, it connects hoses directly to GDT’s FoodSafe Slot Drain, preventing messy liquids from spilling over facility floors. Its engineered nozzle, crafted from durable stainless steel, disperses a precise spray pattern that thoroughly cleans the entire interior of the drain. This feature ensures that standing water, a potential breeding ground for contaminants, is quickly and effectively removed.

The Slot Hog, another standout product in GDT’s portfolio, further improves facility hygiene by funneling liquid directly into the drain, creating a dry, more sanitary processing environment. Its tri-clamp connection allows it to be positioned at any point along the Slot Drain, offering flexibility to sanitation managers. Its stainless-steel construction ensures that it withstands extreme water temperatures, making it both durable and reliable for continuous use.

GDT’s Cleaning Brush, designed with a flexible head and durable build, provides an essential tool for maintaining constant cleanliness within the drain system. These brushes, when combined with the Flush-Flo system, ensure that all areas of the drain are thoroughly cleaned, meeting the high standards expected in food safety environments.

The Tamper-Proof Magnetic Strainer adds an additional layer of protection to facility drainage systems. Designed to act as a secondary strainer in catch basins and area drains, this product prevents unwanted materials from entering the drain system, whether accidentally or otherwise. Its innovative magnetic lock and key system ensures only authorized personnel can access the strainer, enhancing security in critical areas. Built in compliance with NSF/ANSI/3-A standards, this strainer also features a food-safe design with no niches or sharp corners, further minimizing the risk of bacterial growth.

A commitment to food safety is clear in the design and function of each of GDT’s FoodSafe products. As concerns grow about contamination risks in processing facilities, GDT stands as a trusted partner for sanitation managers, quality supervisors, and engineers tasked with maintaining safe production environments. Each product not only complies with stringent industry regulations but is also easy to clean and maintain, further supporting a safe and hygienic food processing environment.
