Grease Management
Grease and Fat Trap Management Services in London, Kent and the South East of England.
Fat and grease traps are essential for any commercial kitchen, restaurant, hospital, school, or food processing plant. They capture harmful greases, fats, and oils, preventing them from entering the drainage system and potentially causing blockages.
However, without proper maintenance, grease and fat traps can become clogged, leading to failures that allow their contents to overflow into the surrounding area or drainage system. Additionally, accumulated grease can be difficult to dispose of and may produce unpleasant odours.

How Does a Grease Trap Work?
Grease traps are designed to collect wastewater from kitchens that contain fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Since grease has a lower density than water—approximately 10-15%—it does not mix with water and instead rises to the surface. This process is facilitated by a system of baffles.
Inside the grease trap, the baffles slow and control the flow of water. As grease accumulates at the top, grease-free water flows underneath the baffle wall and drains into the main sewer line. While most grease traps operate on this basic principle, they can differ in design and size. Your specific grease management needs and the location of your facility will help determine the most suitable grease trap for you.
Regardless of how much Grease needs disposing of we can service both domestic and commercial clients.

Above-Ground Grease Traps
Above-ground grease traps are available for both internal and external use, offering easier access due to their positioning. Often located within the kitchen, these traps are placed near sinks and equipment, allowing water from various kitchen areas to be collected in larger traps situated centrally in the plant room or basement. Above-ground grease traps can be either automatic and self-cleaning or passive, requiring more regular maintenance.
Below-Ground Grease Traps
Below-ground grease traps can be seamlessly installed beneath the ground or within a building for convenient maintenance. These traps come in various shapes and sizes, ranging from super-capacity units to biological systems. Below-ground grease traps can also collect sludge and sediments, which are separated from contaminated water by food waste, and can be removed using a vacuum tanker.
Investing in these efficient systems helps ensure your property remains compliant with BS EN 1825 while preventing blocked drains and unpleasant odours indoors.
Biological Grease Treatment
Biological grease treatment involves breaking down grease using specially designed microorganisms. Advances in biotechnology have made this process possible. These systems can enhance existing grease interceptors and are suitable for treating fats, oils, and grease (FOG) in sewage treatment plants and pumping stations.
