Made to Measure

Bespoke Traps. Designed by You.

Off-the-shelf plastic and metal grease traps are supplied in standard sizes. But what if the inlet and outlet locations on the grease trap don’t line up with the sewer or waste pipe? What if you need to drive a car or HGV over the lid or if a riser is required due to the increased depth of a sewer pipe? What if a standard size trap is too tall or too wide to work in your particular application? A taylormade BIOTRAP® addresses all of these issues allowing you the builder to dictate the shape, design, load-bearing, capacity and much more.

Inlet and Outlet Location

The inlet and outlet locations on plastic or off-the-shelf metal grease traps cannot be altered. This is a problem when installing a new grease trap onto an existing drain as the inlet and outlet points of the trap may not line up with the pipework. A taylormade BIOTRAP® addresses this issue. The inlet and outlet can be positioned anywhere on the trap. They can even be placed off-center. 

Not sure how deep the sewer line is buried in the ground. No problem. Simply call our sales team and we’ll arrange a free site visit to ensure the inlet and outlet locations of the BIOTRAP® will align perfectly with your existing underground pipework. 

Irish Water Application & Approval

Installing a grease trap without Local Authority consent could result in heavy fines and costly remediation works. Prior to fabrication, we will correctly size your grease trap and make an application to Irish Water on behalf of your client. This is a free service. 

Increased Load Bearing on Lids

Need to drive or park a car, van or truck on the lids of your new BIOTRAP®? No problem. Load Class B, C and D is easily achieved with our taylormade covers. 

Bespoke Riser

If the existing sewer line is situated more than 350mm below ground level, a riser will be required. This ensures the volume of the grease trap is not compromised.

Sizing Calculation & Certification

If a grease trap is undersized, Irish Water inspectors can insist that it is removed and replaced. We offer a free sizing service that guarantees compliance with all wastewater regulations.

Free Site Survey

Call now to book a free survey of your site. Our engineers can assist you with sizing, positioning, design, loading, etc.

Life Expectancy

Supplied in factory painted mid steel or 304 stainless steel, our taylormade BIOTRAP’S® can be retrofitted indoors or outdoors, below ground or above ground. They will consistently perform to the highest standards with a life expectancy of 20+ years.

Supplied with Lifting Points

Lifting points can be fabricated to the inside or the outside of the grease trap. This allows for easy lifting and postioning of large units. 

The weight of the trap is provided at the time of order.

Installation Service

We can supply, deliver and install your new BIOTRAP® anywhere in Ireland within 12 to 15 working days from the date of order. Alternatively, you can install the unit yourself. There are no electrical or mechanical components and no specialized training or accreditation is required.

Quotation Request Form

Bespoke Traps. Designed by You.

We can fabricate a grease trap to your specifc requirement to ensure the inlet and oulet locations align perfectly with your existing pipework. If required we can include a load bearing cover for traffic and HGV’s. Simply tell us the dimensions you require and click the “request a quote” button. We will reply within 24 hours with a detailed quotation to include optional installation and SLA (Service Level Agreement).

A =      Overall Length
B =      Overall Width
C =      Overall Height From the bottom of the trap to the top of the cover
D =      Inlet & Outlet Pipe Diametre e.g to suit 40mm, 50mm, or 110mm pipework
E =      Inlet Location From centre of inlet to top of trap
F =      Inlet Location From bottom of trap to centre of inlet
G =     Outlet Location The outlet should be a minimum of 10mm lower than the inlet.

Greasetraps with Pedestrian Lids

Integrated and Recessed Lids

Integrated Lids

All our indoor and outdoor below ground models are supplied with integrated pedestrian lids as standard. This means that the removable lids, when secured, are connected directly to the greasetrap (unlike the independent lid option). Load bearing-lids can accommodate pedestrian traffic, cars, or HGV’s.

Recessed Lids

Recessed lids are the ideal way to minimise the visual impact of a greasetrap in an area of high foot traffic or where a continuous tarmac, concrete, cobble-lock, tile, or timber effect needs to be achieved. Each lid is secured to the base unit with x4 threaded bolts which are located in each corner. The compression seals ensure a 100% airtight seal, so they are perfectly suited for any indoor or outdoor (underground) location.

Independent Lids

All our indoor and outdoor below ground models can be supplied with independant lids. This allows the greasetrap to be installed below finish floor level i.e. where the existing pipework is located deep in the ground. Independent load bearing lids can accommodate pedestrian traffic, cars, or HGV’s.

Gravity Fed & Basement BIOTRAP® with Lifting Pump

Gravity-Fed BIOTRAP®

The BIOTRAP-AG range is specifically designed for above ground applications where grey water leaving the greasetrap is gravity fed into a main sewer line. Constructed from 304 stainless steel throughout, the BIOTRAP-AG is available in 13 standard sizes with variable inlet and outlet locations to suit existing on-site pipework.

BIOTRAP® with Lifting Pump

The BIOTRAP-AG range with grey water holding tank and lifting pump is designed for basement applications where grey water leaving the greasetrap needs to be pumped up to the main sewer line at ground level. The grey water holding tank is typically one third the volume of the greasetrap.

Recessed Lids to Accept Any Floor Type.

Recessed lids are the ideal way to minimise the visual impact of a greasetrap in an area of high foot traffic or where a continuous tarmac, concrete, cobble-lock, tile, or timber effect needs to be achieved. Each lid is secured to the base unit with x4 threaded bolts which are located in each corner.

Our recessed lid model will accommodate pedestrian traffic or light goods trolleys and pallet trucks. HGV and car lids are also available. The lid design ensures the unit can be thoroughly cleaned and washed down in compliance with I.S. EN 1825 parts 1 & 2.

The recessed model can be supplied with independent or integrated lids. The compression seals ensure a 100% airtight seal so they are perfectly suited for any indoor or outdoor (underground) location. As with all our BIOTRAPS, the recessed model comes with variable inlet/outlet locations.
