The cost of grease management goes far beyond the initial purchase price.
Energy, servicing, cleaning, waste handling and ongoing maintenance all contribute to what a system costs over its lifetime. For commercial kitchens operating every day, even relatively small recurring costs can quickly add up.
GreaseShield® – The Grease Management Solution has been designed to manage Fats, Oils and Grease efficiently at source, while helping operators reduce many of the ongoing costs associated with traditional grease management.
Remove FOG Rather Than Store It
Traditional grease traps retain FOG until the accumulated waste is removed, creating a recurring requirement for emptying, cleaning and pump-outs.
GreaseShield® takes a different approach. It continuously separates and recovers FOG from kitchen wastewater during operation, transferring the recovered grease into an external collection container.
By removing FOG at source rather than simply storing it for later, GreaseShield® can help reduce routine waste management requirements while also limiting the amount of grease travelling further into the drainage system.
This can help reduce the risk of blockages, emergency drainage work and disruption to kitchen operations.
Reducing Recurring Operating Costs
GreaseShield® has also been designed to minimise the resources required for effective grease separation.
Commercial kitchen wastewater already contains waste thermal energy from sinks, dishwashers and other equipment. GreaseShield® uses this available heat during the grease separation process without requiring an electrical heating element, helping reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
The system uses mechanical separation and does not require enzymes or bio-additives as part of the FOG recovery process, removing another recurring consumable cost.
Waste handling matters too. GreaseShield® is designed to dewater the FOG it recovers, helping reduce unnecessary water within the collected grease.
Instead of paying to store and potentially transport water-heavy waste, the objective is simple: recover the FOG, not the water.
Look Beyond the Purchase Price
The cheapest grease management system to buy is not necessarily the cheapest system to operate.
Energy, servicing, consumables, waste management and maintenance can continue for years after the equipment has been installed. Effective FOG management can also help reduce the unpredictable costs associated with blocked drainage, emergency call-outs and operational disruption.
GreaseShield® has been designed to manage FOG effectively while helping reduce these ongoing operating costs.
Because when grease management equipment is expected to operate for years, good design does more than improve performance.
It can reduce the cost of ownership.
