Workshop Fitouts Done Right: Design, Supply & Install by AFLO Equipment

A well-planned workshop fitout is the difference between slow, unsafe jobs and fast, traceable, compliant work. AFLO Equipment designs, supplies and installs complete workshop solutions for transport, mining, agriculture, civil, fleet service centres and OEM dealers across Australia—bringing together fluid handling, fuel storage, lubrication systems, compressed air, washdown, and safety & spill control into one dependable package.

From the first site walk-through to commissioning day, AFLO focuses on workflow, compliance and total cost of ownership. That means shorter hose runs, correct pump ratios, right-size tanks, cleaner line routing, and future-proof expandability—so your team works faster and safer, with less maintenance.


What a professional workshop fitout includes

Fluid & lubrication management

  • Bulk oil storage and dispensing (engine, hydraulic, gear oils) with air-operated or electric pumps
  • Grease systems (drum pumps, follower plates, high-pressure hoses, control guns)
  • Coolant, ATF & brake fluid storage and controlled dispensing
  • Waste oil evacuation lines, collection sumps and storage tanks with overfill protection

Fuel & DEF (AdBlue)

  • Self-bunded diesel tanks, transfer pumps, meters and filtration
  • AdBlue tanks, stainless wetted parts, closed-system couplers and dedicated hose reels to prevent cross-contamination
Air & water
  • Compressed air reticulation (aluminium airline, regulators, filters, dryers)
  • Water & washdown reels, high-flow nozzles, and hot/cold feed options
Hose handling & metering
  • Hose reels for oil, grease, air, water and AdBlue; spring or motor rewind
  • Digital meters, control valves and preset dispensers for accuracy and reporting
Safety, compliance & spill control

  • Spill kits, bunding, IBC/drum containment, safety signage and decanting hardware
  • Earthing/bonding where required, backflow prevention, and safe hose management to reduce trip hazards

Typical workshop layouts AFLO delivers


Lube bay
Bulk oil tanks → air-operated pumps → overhead reels → digital meters; return lines feed waste-oil tanks with level monitoring.

Fuel & DEF station
Self-bunded diesel tanks with filtration and metering; AdBlue tank and dedicated reel; clear vehicle flow with bollards and signage.

Service pod islands
Compact posts combining air, oil, grease and water reels with power outlets and lighting to minimise trip hazards and speed turnarounds.

Washdown & detailing
High-flow water reels, foamers and chemical-safe lines; floor drainage and bunding to protect work areas.


AFLO’s fitout process (end-to-end)

  • Discovery & site audit – workflow mapping, decant points, hose lengths, fluid list, compliance checks.
  • Design & specification – CAD layout, bill of materials, pump/reel sizing, controls and metering.
  • Proposal & program – fixed scope, milestones, risk controls and commissioning plan.
  • Install & commissioning – qualified installers, pressure and function tests, staff handover.
  • After-sales support – spares, scheduled maintenance and future expansion planning.


Results you can measure


  • Faster jobs thanks to correct hose placement and reliable rewind
  • Cleaner floors & safer bays with proper containment and hose management
  • Accurate fluids via calibrated meters and preset control valves
  • Lower downtime with industrial components and easy-to-source spares
  • Audit-ready records when integrated with meters and fluid logs


FAQ: Workshop Fitouts

  • What equipment do I need for a fleet workshop fitout?
  • Most fleets need diesel storage, AdBlue systems, bulk oil & grease dispensing, compressed air, washdown, waste oil capture, hose reels and spill control. AFLO designs a package to suit your vehicle mix, throughput and site footprint.
  • How long does a workshop fitout take?
  • Timelines vary with scope, but a well-planned fitout moves quickly once the layout and bill of materials are locked. AFLO provides a staged schedule from delivery through to commissioning.
  • Can AFLO upgrade my existing workshop?
  • Yes—AFLO can retrofit pumps, reels, meters, tanks and pipework, rationalise brands, and re-route services to improve safety and speed without a full rebuild.
