FiltaFry picks up a Green Key

FiltaFry has been recognised for its eco-friendly and sustainable oil-filtration services by a widely respected organisation.

FiltaFry’s German operation has been recognised for its sustainable services and the positive impact that they have on the environment.

The ‘Green Key’ programme, which is an environmental certification system for tourist attractions across the world, gives its stamp of approval to businesses that operate sustainably. It primarily looks at places such as hotels and leisure parks, but the German Association for Environmental Education (DGU), which awards the certification across Germany, judged FiltaFry as worthy of recognition. It’s one of the first supply companies to be recognised by the programme for its services, which include innovative oil filtration and total fryer management solutions.

Speaking about why it felt the van-based franchise was worthy of recognition, Robert Lorenz, Coordinator of the DGU, said:

“We recommend FiltaFry’s very effective and beneficial services because we think that not only does it make life easier for restaurant kitchen staff, the fryers are always clean and the oil is always flawless, but also because up to 50% of the oil can be conserved through regular on-site filtration. In this way restaurateurs are making a measurable contribution to environmental protection and even saving costs.”

FiltaFry Europe’s Managing Director, Jos Van Aalst, said that the recommendation was a fantastic achievement for the franchise.

“To be recommended by the German Association for Environmental Education really means a lot to me personally. It is also a major milestone for our company and all franchisers. Numerous hotels and leisure parks such as Wunderland Kalkar are already customers of ours, profiting from a multitude of benefits. They can now also impress their guests with their sustainability.”

Since it was founded in 1996, FiltaFry has been bringing its unique total fryer management service to customers across the UK and Europe.
