Water is one of our most precious resources — yet every day, millions of litres are lost to something as seemingly minor as a leak. UK homes waste approximately 900 million litres of clean drinking water daily due to leaks, costing around £697 million annually. Another interesting fact is thatm an estimated 400 million litres of water are lost every

When it comes to designing efficient, hygienic, and space-conscious drainage systems for commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, or remote sites, two options typically come to mind: conventional gravity drainage systems and vacuum drainage systems. At EVDS (European Vacuum Drainage Systems), we specialise in providing innovative vacuum drainage solutions tailored for challenging environments. In this post, we’ll

When it comes to designing or refurbishing a supermarket, flexibility, efficiency, and minimal disruption to customers are key priorities. That’s where vacuum drainage systems come into their own. At EVDS (European Vacuum Drainage Systems), we specialise in supplying cutting-edge vacuum drainage solutions across the UK — and one of the sectors where these systems deliver

In industries where space, weight, and efficiency are critical, traditional gravity-based sewage systems often fall short. That’s why marine (ships, offshore platforms) and aviation (aircraft, airports) industries increasingly rely on vacuum drainage systems like those from EVDS (European Vacuum Drainage Solutions). But what makes vacuum technology the preferred choice? Let’s explore the key reasons. 1. Space & Weight Savings – Critical for

Supermarkets play a crucial role in the food supply chain, but behind the shelves stocked with fresh produce, meat, and dairy lies a significant issue: food wastage. A major, often overlooked contributor to this problem is poor refrigeration and drainage systems. When these systems fail, the financial and environmental impact can be enormous. If you

In the fast-paced environment of supermarkets, efficient water management is crucial. Traditional gravity drainage systems can be complex, costly, and restrictive when it comes to store layout and equipment placement. Vacuum drainage offers a simplified and highly effective solution for condensate water removal, ensuring smooth operations and reducing maintenance issues. Read more about the benefits

Water conservation is a growing priority for businesses and homeowners alike. With rising water costs and increasing environmental concerns, water-saving toilets have become a popular choice. But are they worth it? In this article, we explore the benefits of water-saving toilets, how to reduce the amount of water used in a toilet, and the advantages

A vacuum drainage system is an innovative wastewater management solution that uses negative pressure to transport liquids and solids through a closed pipe network. Unlike traditional gravity drainage, which relies on downward slopes, vacuum drainage systems can move waste against gravity, making them highly efficient in various environments. EVDS are experts in vacuum drainage so
