GREASE TRAP EMPTYING & CLEANING

Grease Trap Emptying & Cleaning Service

Commercial kitchens produce fats, oils, and grease (FOGS) from food preparation, cooking, and dishwashing. The results are air and water-borne FOGS that may cause drain blocks, foul odours, pest infestation or fire, ultimately interrupting your business. On top of that, leaving this to chance may result in environmental hygiene enforcement or legal prosecution and fines.

Cargate Engineering Ltd. is a specialist in grease trap cleaning and maintenance. Using Cargate’s specially developed grease trap cleaning process and equipment, we clean grease traps with minimal disruption to your operation.

Why Is Grease Trap Cleaning Essential?

Grease traps are essential to any commercial kitchen or food processing plant and help with grease management by capturing harmful greases, fats and oils. However, grease can build up very quickly inside the traps, making them ineffective. In addition, the accumulation of oil and fat increases the difficulty of disposing of solid waste and the chance of becoming a source of unpleasant odours. By implementing regular grease trap cleaning, you can easily avoid this upheaval. British Water recommends grease trap cleaning when it is 25% full of solids, so if you are operating a large commercial kitchen, frequent grease trap cleaning is necessary to keep your grease trap within recommended level. For many of our clients, we carry out grease trap cleaning every three months.

Cleaning your grease trap contributes to your kitchen’s overall hygiene and removes the risk of foul odours. It can also help save money in the long term by avoiding the need for more expensive repairs and replacements. Any grease waste we collect is disposed of safely and legally at a licensed facility.
