Filta Advantage

Recently the U.S. Commerce Association named the Filta Group the recipient of its 2009 “Best Local Business” in the Green Business category.  This isn’t the first time Filta has received such honorable recognition.  The Filta Group appeared for 3 consecutive years in the Franchise Times list of top 55 fastest growing franchisors.  Filta has also received a number of other glowing recommendation within the business community and the food-service industry.

Filta has become such a well known name in the food-service industry that Filta services are now used by a number of major sports arenas, such as the Invesco Field at Mile High and the University of Virginia Stadium.  In fact, Filta has gained such a great reputation that it has been asked to provide services at two of the main venues of the 2010 Winter Olympics to be held in Vancouver, British Columbia.  So who is Filta and what makes them such a highly regarded name?

Inside Filta

The Filta Group began as a small cooking oil filtration service in the UK during the 1990s.  Since that time Filta has expanded across the globe, with franchises operating in 27 different companies.  It has also expanded its product and service to provide much more that just oil filtration.  All of its products are eco-friendly, reduce waste and help businesses save money.  The Filta Group is now headquartered here in the U.S., in Orlando, FL, where it continues to grow.  Adding new franchises and new satisfied customers with increasing rapidity.

FiltaFry

The service that started it all, FiltaFry, is still Filta’s top service.  The FiltaFry service is a revolutionary method of cooking oil filtration that allows restaurants and other commercial kitchen to reduce their cooking oil use by half.  Obviously that adds up to a pretty tremendous savings and the reduced waste is good for the environment too.  FiltaFry also helps maintain commercial fryers so that they run more efficiently and use less energy, providing even more savings and less waste.

Other benefits of using Filta Fry include increased employee safety and decreased incidents of burn injuries and slip-and-fall injuries in the workplace.  A safer workplace can net your business up to 25% off of your insurance premiums.  When FiltaFry takes over managing your fryers it takes the burden of that unpleasant task off of your staff and places it into the hands of a skilled professional.

FiltaBio

Filta’s newest service, FiltaBio, works hand-in-hand with the FiltaFry service.  Rather than having to store your oil in unsightly and unsanitary waste oil bins when it comes time to throw it away, the FiltaBio waste oil removal service can take the oil directly from your fryers and transport it off-site for you.  Better yet, almost all of the waste oil Filta collects is used to produce biodiesel fuel to help combat rising oil prices and pollution.

FiltaCool

In 2008 Filta added FiltaCool to the lineup.  FiltaCool is Filta’s specially designed filters for commercial coolers.  These filters help regulate the environment inside of your walk-in cooler so that your perishable goods stay fresh longer.  This means less waste due to spoilage and less energy waste, because your cooler will run much more efficiently.  FiltaCool filters make a big difference for not much money.
