A large-scale residential precinct supported by six waste and linen chute systems for efficient waste management

Elephants Foot partnered with Karimbla Construction to deliver six modern chute systems at Topia, The Retreat Lidcombe, a resort-style development by Meriton Group.

The project required three waste chute systems and three linen chute systems, all built with 510mm galvanised steel pipes and fire-rated chute doors. Each chute was supported by a discharge attachment suited to either 1100L MGBs (waste) or linen trolleys.

To ensure hygiene and compliance, all systems incorporated vent and wash-down cleaning systems, installed at the top levels to discharge through the roofline. The works spanned three buildings (A1, A2 and B), providing reliable, future-ready waste and linen infrastructure for more than 68 residential levels.
