Oil Filtration & Fryer Oil Management

Fryer Oil Filtration & Oil Management

Fryer oil filtration removes food debris and carbon from cooking oil so it lasts longer, cooks cleaner, and costs less. Oil is one of the biggest running costs in any fried-food operation, so filtering daily can dramatically extend oil life and improve food quality. Caterzone stocks oil filtration machines, mobile filter carts, fryer oil pumps, and collection trays for UK fish and chip shops, chicken shops, and takeaways.

Why filter your fryer oil?

• Extends oil life significantly — a major cost saving in high-volume frying
• Cleaner oil means better-tasting, better-looking food
• Removes carbon and debris that would otherwise burn and taint the oil
• Reduces smoke and improves fryer performance

Types of oil filtration equipment

A mobile oil filter cart lets you filter oil between fryers on wheels; fryer oil pumps transfer and filter oil quickly; and collection trays with filters catch and clean drained oil. Choose based on your fryer count and volume.

How often should you filter?

Filter oil at least daily in a busy shop, ideally after each service. Combined with a good fryer and correct temperatures, daily filtration can extend oil life by days and cut your oil bill noticeably. See our commercial fryers and Henny Penny pressure fryers to complete your frying line.
