Grease Trap - Grease Management Systems
The No.1 cause of drain blockage at sites with commercial kitchens
With up to 70% of drain blockages in commercial kitchens caused by a build-up of Fat, Oil and Grease (FOG) the need for effective grease management is vital for any commercial catering operation.
Watling Hope work with some of the UK's leading pubs, restaurants, hotels and commercial caterers to manage the problem of grease, keeping drainage systems operational and buildings compliant.
As a solution orientated company our focus is not on supplying products - but solving the problem itself. For all customers we conduct a site survey at no charge, assess site requirements and put forward solutions to control grease build-up and prevent drain blockages.
For new-builds we work with consultants and specifiers to design practical grease management arrangements to reduce the risk of drain blockages, improve hygiene and minimise the environmental impact of the kitchen on the connecting drainage and environment.
At Watling Hope we believe relationships are important and our success is built on results. We keep our customers operational and compliant 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

About FOG
Fat, oil and grease enters the drainage systems of commercial premises from washing of pots, pans, plates and utensils.
In warm water FOG is in suspension and can be easily washed into the drain-line, however once the effluent cools the FOG comes out of suspension and forms a sticky coating on the walls of the pipe-work.
Left untreated this fatty-coating will build-up and in so doing will reduce the throughput of the pipe. Once the diameter of the pipe has been significantly reduced it is a matter of time before the there is a complete and catastrophic blockage.
FOG affects all restaurants
A common misconception is that fat, oil and grease is only a problem for kitchens where food is grilled or fried. On the contrary - fat and oil in kitchen drainage is derived from oils, meat, fish and dairy preparation and increasingly the use of combination steaming ovens.
