The Sanitaryware Supplies Company has secured the UK distribution rights for the Grate Seal range of self-fitting seals range from Australian firm Gentec.

The self-fitting seals can be retrofitted to any existing floor drains, providing odour prevention and pest-proofing, making them ideal for a commercial kitchen environment. They are easy to install and can be fitted to new and existing facilities.

Gentec’s Grate Seal is expected to sell in a number of other markets including health and aged care, education, shopping centres, sports and leisure centre, disability and accessibility, food and processing industry, spas, hotels and education.

Grate Seal is manufactured from a single piece of rubber, incorporating a silver-based bactericide, which prevents microbes from reproducing and avoiding a build-up of biofilm. Additionally, it prevents vermin, fruit flies and infection.

The rubber composite construction also makes the Grate Seal flexible, closing as soon as the flow of water has stopped to prevent any backflow or bugs  escaping.

The seal uses friction to sit in the drain, which means no fixing kits are required and they can be removed as much as necessary without requiring the flooring to be removed or affected. easy to install and can be installed to new and existing facilities
