In high‑care food processing plants, commercial kitchens, and pharmaceutical environments, sanitary design is not just a requirement—it’s essential. Chicago Metalcraft stands out as a premier fabricator of stainless‑steel equipment engineered for cleanability, durability, and performance. Two of their standout product categories— Floor Drains and stainless steel prep tables—offer powerful solutions for facilities that demand the very best in hygiene and workflow efficiency.

Built to Drain: Next‑Level Stainless Floor Drains

Chicago Metalcraft’s floor drains are more than simple plumbing fixtures; they are precision-engineered tools that play a critical role in maintaining sanitary environments. Their heavy-duty stainless-steel drains feature fully welded construction that eliminates seams where bacteria might hide. These drains also include traffic-rated covers designed to withstand industrial loads, along with sediment baskets to trap debris and simplify maintenance.

Among the options is an 8-inch area drain with a stainless-steel cover and multiple slip-connection sizes, making it ideal for clean-room and food-processing applications. For facilities handling large volumes of wash water or needing robust drainage, Chicago Metalcraft offers in-floor sinks and 12-inch floor sinks—again made from welded stainless steel to resist corrosion and simplify cleaning.

Whether installed in a busy food prep line, a sanitization area, or a hose-down production zone, these drains support rigorous hygiene protocols while offering long-lasting performance under heavy use.

Stainless Steel Prep Tables: The Heart of Food‑Ready Workspaces

Prep tables are the centerpiece of many food processing areas and commercial kitchens. Chicago Metalcraft’s stainless steel prep tables (sometimes called assembly or work-prep surfaces) are built for strength, cleanliness, and versatility. Their hygienic design features fully welded stainless construction, open under-structure for easy cleaning, and high load-capacity frames—making them ideal for both food preparation and assembly tasks.

These tables can be customized with casters for mobility, adjustable feet for leveling, or even undershelves for extra storage. The stainless surfaces resist corrosion and bacteria, while the welds are designed to minimize dirt traps. In sanitary facilities, this means a reliable, hard-working platform that supports daily production and rigorous cleaning routines.

Why Chicago Metalcraft’s Approach Matters

What elevates Chicago Metalcraft is their integrated view of hygienic design. Instead of treating floor drains and prep tables as separate elements, they consider how these components work together in real production environments. Strategic placement of floor drains around prep stations helps manage washdown water, while stainless prep tables remain stable, easy to clean, and productive throughout rigorous cycles.

Their in-house fabrication capabilities also mean custom solutions are available—whether it’s a prep table sized for a unique workflow or a floor drain that fits a tight layout. Their mastery of welded stainless steel ensures seamless joints and reliable sanitation at every corner.

Sanitary, Safe, and Scalable

By integrating heavy-duty floor drains with hygienic Stainless Steel Prep Tables, Chicago Metalcraft offers production facilities and commercial kitchens a unified platform for safety and efficiency. These components support your sanitation procedures, streamline maintenance, and give peace of mind that your operations remain both productive and compliant.

For any facility striving to maintain rigorous hygiene while optimizing workflow, Chicago Metalcraft’s stainless‑steel solutions are a smart, long-term investment.
