Tricel Solution
The small septic tank provided a cost-effective and sustainable wastewater treatment option perfectly matched to the garden centre’s needs. The Tricel Novo UK6 Gravity unit is designed for smaller-scale applications like commercial outbuildings and staff facilities, offering reliable performance and easy maintenance.
The client found Tricel through a local builders’ merchant who recommended our products. Following this, our representative visited the site to discuss the plan in detail, ensuring the chosen solution met both regulatory requirements and the client’s expectations.
Small Septic Tank – Nottingham Garden Centre
This case study highlights the installation of a small septic tank for a local garden centre in Nottingham. The business needed a reliable and compact wastewater treatment solution for new staff toilets. Using the Tricel Novo UK 6 Gravity system, the project delivered an efficient, eco-friendly outcome suitable for discharge into a nearby stream.
Our sales area manager Barry Hodden worked on this project.
The Challenge
The client required a simple yet compliant system to handle wastewater from staff facilities without major site disruption. Space constraints and a preference for a low-maintenance option meant that a small septic tank was the best solution.
Additionally, the customer wanted a product that could be installed quickly and easily without the need for extensive groundwork or external contractors – an important factor for a busy, operational garden centre.
Installation
The Tricel Novo UK6 Gravity system was selected for its compact design and ease of installation. Remarkably, the customer installed the small septic tank himself after receiving guidance from our team.
Installation took just five days from start to finish, including preparation, positioning, and final connection to the outlet leading to a watercourse. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and caused minimal disruption to the garden centre’s operations.
Final result
The small septic tank installation was completed successfully, fully operational, and performing as intended. The customer praised the quality build of the Tricel Novo UK 6 system and appreciated the hands-on support provided during planning and setup.
This project demonstrates how Tricel products make even small-scale commercial wastewater solutions simple, effective, and compliant – reinforcing Tricel’s reputation for reliability and customer support across the UK.
