management for nearly 20 years.”
As the World’s first Hydro Cyclonic enhanced GRU with Biofuel as the moisture content is less than 1%
eight independent Hydro Cyclones, the GreaseMaster Cyclone offers unique two-stage FOG separation and recovery to deliver industry-leading grease removal levels. (The system is estimated to remove in the region of 2,000 litres of oil from sink waste every year), the recovered oil can then be re-purposed for biofuel. In addition, the ultra-high performance system removes over 99.9% of oil carried in the waste effluent and protects against drain blockages or water company compliance.

The Cyclone unit is the result of input from engineers across the Filta business. It has been 15 years in the making to create a unit that takes the best technology and design principles and addresses the short-falls of other units on the market.”
