Organic Absorbents Ltd. has developed a recycled, sustainable solution for disposing of waste cooking oil and fats. Fattrap is extremely versatile cooking oil disposal pouch that can be used to absorb any number of liquids that would ordinarily be difficult to dispose of in either domestic or commercial kitchens.
Primarily developed for use with health grills, the potential for use in other common cooking situations, including roasting and frying is unquestionable.
Most of the
used cooking oil or fat put down drains is in liquid form. The walls of the underground pipe are cold, so as the fat moves through the pipe, it cools and sets on the walls of the pipe. Flushing hot water down with the fat will not stop this, as the surrounding ground keeps it cool. The fat will build up within the pipe over a period of weeks or months. Eventually, not only will domestic pipes and drains become blocked but sewer blockages will reduce the efficiency of the system and add to the problem of sewage flowing out of the system and into rivers or streams.
The contents of Fattrap cooking oil disposal pouches, coir pith, is a 100% organic, sustainable product and has excellent hygroscopic and hydrophobic qualities that actually locks waste fats and oils into its honeycomb structure, turning the waste to a solid for easy and safe disposal into your household rubbish. Organic Absorbents Ltd owns the patent for milling coir, into coir pith dust. The Milling process and experience gained by Organic Absorbents Ltd. is unique to UK, and the cooking oil disposal "pouch" and "Fattrap" covered worldwide by Intellectual Property.
