Case Studies 

Below are a selection of Case studies on how the Grease Guzzler has solved problems in many areas of catering and grease management.

Pizza Hut

The Pizza Hut Express is located on the busy first floor food court at the Centre Court Shopping Centre in Wimbledon, close to the famous lawn where the ‘Championships of Wimbledon’ are held. The restaurant serves approximately 200 pizzas per day fromMonday to Friday, increasing to 300 at the weekends and during school holidays.

Due to the high amount of food served each day, they were suffering from reoccurring blockages in their drains caused by the build-up of waste Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG), which also lead to unpleasant odours emitting from the drains. This resulted in a costly and high dependenceon drain maintenance companies as a temporary solution. The limited space available in the kitchen often caused high levels of disruption and interfered with the smooth running of the busy kitchen and this is where the Grease Guzzler came in.
