The story behind Draindane

The Draindane concept and product was developed by the undersigned.

I have a property service company (Wilner ApS), and the idea arose in connection with my work with moving residents into new buildings.

I experience highly dissatisfied residents on a daily basis. The problem is with the current solution for drain holes, which is a black bucket. Either standing on the floor or suspended from a hook in the ceiling.

When I first became aware of the problem, it surprised me that there was no better solution than the bucket. It had to be possible to come up with a more user-friendly and nicer product – which could benefit both residents, building managers and administrators.

My idea was that I should come up with something that was easy to screw up into the ceiling, that could catch the water, and that should roughly look like a white lamp (ceiling) that could blend in with the ceiling.

This is how Draindane came about, as it looks today in broad terms. The form itself has changed several times in the process, because several different things have arisen along the way that had to be taken into account - and because I have also become smarter about which needs it must cover.

The most important thing about Draindane has always been to make the work easier for everyone involved in the problem of drain holes. Therefore, we continuously test the product and obtain feedback from users, and therefore the concept develops continuously.
