The advantages of a drip tray

Water damage prevention

Drip trays help to contain water, preventing it from damaging floors, foundations, and other structures. This is especially important in residential and commercial buildings where water damage can lead to costly repairs.

Corrosion protection

In industrial and commercial settings, leaks and spills can lead to corrosion of machinery and equipment. Our sheet metal drip trays provide a protective barrier to prevent this.

Regulatory compliance

Many industries, including food processing and oil production, require strict adherence to environmental and safety standards. Large drip trays help to contain spills and avoid environmental contamination, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

Cost savings

By catching leaks before they cause significant damage, drip trays save you money on repairs and maintenance. For industrial projects, these components also help to avoid fines related to spills and regulatory non-compliance.

Frequently asked questions

Which material is best for a drip tray?

The best material depends on the environment where the drip tray will be used. Stainless steel is ideal for areas where corrosion resistance is crucial, such as kitchens, outdoor installations, or environments exposed to moisture.

Galvanised steel is preferred for heavy-duty industrial applications because of its strength and durability in harsh conditions. If the tray will be exposed to chemicals or high heat, make sure to choose a material that can withstand those factors.

How do I install a drip tray for my air conditioner?

Installing a drip tray for an air conditioner is straightforward. Position the tray directly beneath the unit to catch any condensation or leaks. Ensure it is level to allow proper drainage and prevent overflow.

Many air conditioning trays come with built-in drainage outlets or options to connect to a drain line, making it easier to divert water away from the building’s structure.

Do I need a custom drip tray for industrial projects?

For many industrial applications, custom drip trays may be necessary due to the unique size and shape of equipment, such as large tanks, valves, or boilers.
Custom trays ensure a perfect fit and allow you to manage large volumes of liquid safely.

Customisation also lets you choose the right material for your specific industry requirements, whether that’s chemical resistance, high-temperature tolerance, or enhanced durability.

How do drip trays help with environmental compliance?

Drip trays are essential for catching leaks and spills, preventing them from contaminating the environment or the worksite.

In industries that handle hazardous materials like oil or chemicals, these solutions are critical in meeting health, safety, and environmental regulations.

Using them also helps avoid fines and ensures compliance with local laws by containing potential pollutants before they cause damage.

What size drip tray do I need?

The size of the drip tray depends on the equipment or area you’re trying to protect. For air conditioning units, measure the size of the unit and choose an AC drip tray that fits securely beneath it.

For larger industrial applications, like tanks or boilers, you may need a custom-sized tray that can handle the volume of potential leaks or spills.

Always consider the tray’s depth to ensure it holds enough liquid in case of significant leakage.
