Reef Island Resort Official Opening in Bahrain

A high profile project and one of the largest scale vacuum sewerage systems ever designed had an official opening this month in Bahrain for its key resort project.

Reef Island decided to use a Flovac vacuum sewerage system due to the ease and speed of installation compared to using a gravity sewer systems. There was also a decision by the developers of the resort that they wanted to use world class environmental best practice and through research had discovered that this is what Flovac delivered.

The whole island is serviced by just a single vacuum station which is completely concealed underground.  The island features not only this world class resort but numerous bungalows, apartment buildings and world class restaurants.

For the special opening Flovac’s Chairman Mr Willem Gooren was invited as a special guest along with members of the Flovac team who were involved with the system development.

To assist with the operations of the vacuum system Flovac has installed a monitoring system that enables the operations center in Holland to provide additional remote support. With our senior operational teams able to review the system in real time, fast communication can occur to assist those based locally.
