With greater scrutiny on FOG (Fats, Oils and Grease) management and the ongoing threat of fines for non-compliance, it has never been more important to specify to correct FOG solutions in your kitchen.
Discover our market leading FiltaFOG Cyclone Grease Recovery Unit (GRU)
Installing Grease Recovery Units (GRUs) into the kitchen help operators to meet the requirements of Section 111 of the Water Industry Act 1991, by recovering FOG from wastewater before it reaches the drainage network. With market-leading solutions like the FiltaFOG Cyclone, they can also turn waste FOG into a revenue stream.
The FiltaFOG Cyclone range, which includes standard, low-level and mobile units, delivers previously unimagined levels of FOG retention whilst using less energy than traditional GRUs and ensuring a better kitchen environment.
Our easy-to-use unit, which offers patented two-stage FOG separation and recovery to deliver exceptionally high-quality recovered oil from kitchen wastewater, can recover approximately 2,000 litres of quality oil every year. This oil can be recycled into biodiesel, allowing the operator to generate up to £400 in additional revenue per year, per unit. And it only costs a few pounds per year to run, with easy maintenance too.

Ed Palin, sales director for Filta Group, said: “It is important for operators to be aware that non-compliance with Water Company requirements is actually a criminal offence and the consequences can be severe.
Installing correctly sized grease management equipment is vital to avoid compliance issues. Stand-alone drain dosing systems or undersized grease traps may seem like a cheaper option but they could prove costly if they don’t provide the protection needed. Breaching the Water Industry Act could make operators liable to enforcement action and the risk of unlimited fines and/or up to two years imprisonment if they fail to comply.
That’s why we work with equipment distributors, kitchen designers and caterers to help educate the industry and make sure the correct FOG management equipment is specified for each individual site.”
