Del Ray is a luxury coastal residential development by J Hutchinson, located at 7-11 Miles Street, Coolangatta QLD, in the Kirra Beach precinct on Queensland’s southern Gold Coast. The development’s premium beachside character and multi-level configuration required a compliant and reliable waste management solution suited to the operational demands of a high-density luxury residential building.
Elephants Foot Chute Solutions was engaged to supply and install a waste chute system tailored to the building’s vertical layout and occupancy requirements. The system provides efficient waste transfer across 13 chute pipe levels, with 13 fire-rated self-closing waste intake doors installed at every operational level. All 13 intake doors received a medium temperature smoke seal upgrade, providing enhanced fire and smoke containment compliance throughout the chute shaft and supporting the safety expectations of a premium residential environment.
Signage was fitted to each intake door to support correct use by residents. The chute runs straight up and down throughout the shaft, with the discharge room located at ground level fitted with a Type A bottom discharge door configured to suit a 2m3 bin, accommodating the high-volume waste output of a multi-level luxury residential tower.
A vent and wash-down cleaning system was installed at the top of the chute shaft, discharging through to roof level above to support airflow management, odour control, and internal chute hygiene throughout the full height of the shaft.
The completed installation provides J Hutchinson with a durable, compliant, and low-maintenance waste infrastructure solution tailored to the boutique luxury character of Del Ray, supporting efficient building operations and a premium residential experience for occupants within one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after coastal precincts.
