Grease Traps for Food Production

Food production and processing sites generate high volumes of FOG that require industrial-grade grease management. We provide compliant systems and maintenance programmes for food manufacturers across the UK.

Food Production Challenges

Food production sites face grease management challenges on a different scale to commercial kitchens.

High FOG Volumes

Food production sites generate significantly more FOG than commercial kitchens. Processing lines, cooking equipment, and cleaning operations all contribute to high-volume grease output that requires industrial-grade solutions.

Continuous Operations

Many food production facilities run 24/7 or on extended shift patterns. Maintenance must be planned carefully to avoid disrupting production schedules.

Environmental Permits

Food production sites often operate under environmental permits with specific discharge conditions. Non-compliance can result in permit revocation and significant fines.

Multiple Discharge Points

Large production facilities may have multiple drainage points from processing lines, cleaning stations, and welfare facilities. Each needs to be assessed and managed correctly.

Our Approach

How We Help Food Producers

Industrial-Grade Systems

We specify and install high-capacity grease separators designed for food production volumes. All systems comply with BS EN 1825 and are sized to your actual output.

Planned Maintenance Programmes

Maintenance contracts with servicing scheduled around your production calendar. We work during planned downtime, shift changes, or maintenance windows.

Environmental Permit Support

We provide the documentation and evidence needed to demonstrate compliance with your environmental permit conditions, including discharge monitoring records.

Multi-Point Drainage Surveys

Full drainage surveys of your site to identify all FOG sources and ensure every discharge point is properly managed.
