AQUATRAY 1 METRE (WITH DRAINS)

Description

The Aquatray 1 Metre with Drains is a professional, heavy-duty growing tray system designed for large-scale indoor horticulture and commercial cultivation where a substantial, unified collection area is required for multiple pots, growing containers, or flood-and-drain system bases. At one metre in length with integrated drain connections, the Aquatray provides a professional-standard growing surface that manages run-off efficiently while offering the option to connect drains to a collection reservoir — enabling automated run-off recycling or simple directed drainage to a waste point outside the growing area.

The Advantage of Integrated Drainage

Standard drip trays collect run-off and require manual emptying at intervals determined by the irrigation frequency and tray capacity. In large growing operations with high irrigation volumes, this manual emptying can become a significant daily task. The Aquatray with drains eliminates this by allowing run-off to flow continuously out of the tray through the drain connections and into either a collection system for recycling or a waste drainage point for disposal. This automation of run-off management reduces the daily labour requirement of large growing operations and eliminates the risk of tray overflow that occurs when manual emptying schedules are not maintained precisely. Automated drain management also means the growing area floor remains dry at all times — improving safety, hygiene, and the overall professionalism of the growing environment. At The Horticulture Company we have been supplying Aquatray systems to professional growers since 2017. They represent a meaningful upgrade from standard drip trays for anyone running a serious growing operation who wants to professionalise their water management infrastructure.

Dimensions, Construction, and Installation

The 1-metre Aquatray is manufactured from durable, chemical-resistant material capable of supporting the substantial loads of large growing containers plus irrigation water volume. Drain connections accept standard irrigation fittings and connect to tubing for directed drainage. Install on a level surface and ensure drain connections are positioned to allow complete drainage without standing water remaining in the tray base between irrigation cycles.
