More buildings.
One specification.
Fewer interventions.

A property manager overseeing a portfolio of buildings can't send a crew every weekend because of odours in the drains. They need a systematic solution that reduces the number of calls in the dispatch system and keeps tenants happy. Green Drain™ is a one-time purchase that lasts for five years.

Problem & solution

What does he see? FM dispatch system.

A smell complaint is a classic ticket in the FM system. The technician arrives, flushes the P-trap, returns in 14 days—same issue. Labor costs rise, and the tenant doubts the building's quality.

Without Green Drain™

  • Smell complaint — 30–60 minutes on call, plus travel time.
  • An intervention doesn't solve the cause—it only treats the symptom (turns on the P-trap, goes away).
  • The scents recur — the same location every 2–3 weeks.
  • Corporate tenants have options — a bad impression = canceled contracts
  • The FM contract has KPIs for response time and the number of open tickets — costs are rising.

With Green Drain™

  • Elimination of the primary cause of smell complaints within five years.
  • Standardization through the portfolio — one specification for procurement
  • Reduction of the number of FM interventions per facility
  • Contribution to the building's LEED/BREEAM rating (sustainability)
  • ASSE 1072-2020 and EN 1253 documentation for corporate procurement
Croatian FM

Sector is becoming professional.

The FM industry in Croatia is rapidly developing. Corporate clients are demanding ESG and sustainability metrics. Smell complaints are one of the most common ticket types — the solution is quickly evolving toward passive systems that don't require repeated interventions.

Implementation

Implementation in to the FM portfolio

The property manager takes the specification, the dispatch system doesn't open new smell tickets at the facility — the recommendation is being rolled out across the portfolio.

01

Pilot building

A building with a history of smell tickets — pilot, 90-day evaluation.

02

Measurement

Number of open tickets — pre/post analysis for the sustainability report.

03

Specification

Central procurement takes over the specification for the rest of the portfolio.

04

Roll-out

Prioritized building implementation — typically 6–18 months.

Model Recommendation

Recommendation throughout the entire portfolio.

A typical FM portfolio in Croatia is a mix of office buildings (40–60%), hotels (20–30%), retail centres (10–20%), and industrial facilities (5–10%). Standardization across the portfolio — GD 2 and GD 3 together cover ~80% of needs. Central procurement handles all sizes in a single tender.

Green Drain™ Recommended for your industry.

  • BC and hotel rooms (~55% of the portfolio)GD 2. Largest volume procurement.
  • Wellness, F&B, sports (~20%)GD 3HoReCa standard.
  • Industrial facilities and larger garages (~10%)GD 4.
  • Specific large grooves (~5%)GD 5 or GD 6CRAC plant, central kitchen ducts.
