Corporate Social Responsibility

Workplace Environment

A clean and sanitary kitchen is a key factor to employee satisfaction in the restaurant industry. Staff turnover can have a negative impact on your business. Kitchen staff should never clean a grease trap. The rotting grease sludge and rank odours create unpleasant and unsafe working conditions. Kitchen staff have quit their jobs as opposed to cleaning the grease trap. A municipal bylaw enforcerment officer stated that after 20 years, nothing compared to the stench of a grease trap. Goslyn Grease Traps provide a clean and odour free environment for kitchen staff. Dishwashers and kitchen staff will buy into the benefits of a safe and sanitary work environment.

An Unsanitary kitchen will always reflect the end product.

The Customer's Food

Sustainability

Sustainability must deliver environmental, social, and financial value. The key factor in sustainability is people. Motivate employees to be part of the sustainability team. A choice of shift or choice of days off are a simple prize to motivate employees.

No institutions in modern society are better equipped to catalyze the necessary transition to a sustainable world than Universities. - David Orr

In an always evolving environment Goslyn Grease traps reduce landfill waste and prevents grease from polluting our sewers and natural water resources. Goslyn Grease Traps do not leak. Land contamination will not occur due to rusting and leaking grease interceptors. The elimination of a grease trap pumping service coming to your site is a true sustainable benefit. A truck, that consumes fossil fuels, is not needed to pump and dispose of the brown grease. Grease Trap pumping trucks are noisy, untimely, and an unwanted sight.

Sustainability is a Journey, not a Destination

Recovered grease from Goslyn Grease Traps is recycled for the process of manufacturing biodiesel. Biodiesel manufacturers have nicknamed Goslyn's recovered grease "Liquid Gold" as the water content is less than one percent without food particles or soap residue.

At Cosco, meat scraps and rotisserie chicken grease are now recycled. As of September 2010 Costco had installed 94 (Ninety-four) Goslyn grease recovery devices in their warehouses. The result was the recovery of over three million pounds of grease. Grease that once went into landfill sites is now being recycled for biofuel and soap products.

One billion pounds is the total weight of every telephone book produced in the USA in 1 year.

Sustainability Must Deliver Value

Goslyn Saves Money

Kitchen facilities without Goslyn Grease Traps have these guaranteed costs monthly, or quarterly:

• Grease Traps cleaning or pumping
• drain snaking
• line powerjetting
• grease trap bacterias and enzymes

Kitchen facilities without Goslyn Grease Traps have these potential exorbitant costs:

• Grease Trap Leaking - destroyed land and/or property
• Grease Trap Overlows - carpet cleaning, flooding, restaurant closure
• Sanitary Sewer Overflows - just wait for that bill and fine
• Insurance Deductibles - temporary restaurant closure, property damage
