Grease Traps, Grease Interceptors and Grease Arrestors – all names for the one device can be constructed from Concrete, Stainless Steel or Polypropylene, Polyethylene and/or PVC plastics blends.
Whilst it would be common to assume Concrete and Stainless Steel has more strength and durability most people would be surprised to learn the strength and advantages of Polyethylene/PVC plastics in Grease Trap manufacturing.
1. PRECISION MANUFACTURING
Plastic Grease Traps are manufactured using the most technically advanced roto-moulding or meticulously custom made using CAD design and CVC butt welding machines by DVS qualified fabricators for a premium quality product and finish every time.
2. PREMIUM CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Polyethylene is non-porous, UV stabilised and does not react with chemicals such as corrosive acids, salts, aggressive soils and does not harbour or grow bacteria or fungi. Most Concrete and Stainless Steel Grease Traps require additional acid coatings to achieve this.
3. EFFICIENT & ECONOMICAL CLEANING
Polyethylene has a smooth wax like surface that prevents coagulated fats and oils build up which means cleaning is more thorough ensuring tank longevity and is quick and easy with minimal water usage.
4. STRONG & DURABLE
Designed by Structural Engineers to Australian Standards Polyethylene tanks have projected life spans of up to 50 years with high durability against dents, cracks and breaks. Above ground tanks can be manufactured with 50mm thick dual skin walls constructed with internal cross-rib cell structures which provides sufficient strength to be self supporting without a steel frame.
5. EASY, ECONOMICAL TRANSPORT & INSTALLATION
Reduced weight of plastic Grease Traps provides for more economical shipping, handling and installation. Heavy haulage equipment and cranes on installation sites are not required. Their light weight provides easy manoeuvrability and ability to install in difficult situations.
6. ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Reduced materials, emissions, energy, transport, water, land use for manufacturing and installation plus ongoing maintenance cost savings with less water consumption for tank cleaning.
