What We Do


 
  GRAVITY POLLUTES
    FLOVAC PROTECTS

Flovac Vacuum Sewerage Systems are suppliers, designers, installers and operators of vacuum sewerage systems.


As a Global business, our design engineers, installers, project managers and operators have been involved in an amazing number of different types of environmental and climatic conditions. They all look forward to the problem solving that comes from dealing with complex engineering situations.

 

At Flovac we are working towards better solutions for creating a smaller carbon footprint for sewerage networks and a smaller impact on our environment. In everything we do, we reduce people's impact on the environment. We take away people's sewage in a way that  minimizes :-

 

  • Risks to the Environment
  • Odour
  • Disease
  • Contamination
  • Carbon Footprint
  • Energy Use
  • Water Use


Our R&D group is one of the strengths of our business. We recognise that products need to be developed differently to cope with different conditions, deserts versus snow; floods versus droughts. This impacts what designs are needed and impacts on the planning of a scheme. As we are global, we recognise that each country and in many cases, each community has a different set of problems.
