Filta Cyclone Named in Top “Wish-list” of Sustainable Catering Equipment Products

Filta’s Cyclone Grease Recovery Unit has been featured in this year’s “Going Green: Sustainable Catering Equipment Products for Operators” list by FEJ. 

The Filta Cyclone uses a heater pad rated at 30W, meaning it reduces power consumption by up to 97%.

As well as the major savings in energy costs, the Filta Cyclone has additional environmental and commercial benefits. The equipment itself is almost entirely plastic-free, made primarily from stainless steel. It has a high level of grease removal capabilities, able to extract and recover around 2,000 litres of oil a year, which could be sold on.

The system de-waters and filters out food waste from FOG, minimising sludge, reducing the possibility of drain blockages and eradicating bad odours, making for a better working environment.

Supply Chain in Full Flow

In other news, Filta’s Cyclone supply chain is now in full flow with Franchise Brands (parent company of Filta Group) insisting it has regained full control of the supply chain following issues that had impacted the availability of Cyclone Grease Recovery Unit last year.

Franchise Brands, which acquired Filta back in 2022, had suffered supply constraints relating to the company’s flagship Cyclone Grease Recovery Unit. Last year, it cited the issue as a “factor” in the third quarter but it now says the problem has been sorted after it acquired all the intellectual property rights associated with the unit.

“While this disruption has impacted sales last year, the board is confident that full control of the supply chain will enable accelerated growth in 2024,” the company stated in its latest trading update.
