Try it for yourself and discover a smarter, greener solution for your commercial kitchen.
HOW OUR KITCHEN GREASE FILTERS WORK
Each Shepherd Filters unit consists of a stainless-steel frame that holds a disposable wool filter. As cooking grease vapours rise into your kitchen hood (canopy), the wool pad captures the grease before it reaches the ducts. This preventative approach keeps your entire exhaust system cleaner and safer. Here’s the process:
- The grease vapours rise up into the exhaust canopy while you’re cooking.
- Our filters trap the grease, capturing up to 98% of airborne particles.
- Clean air moves through, reducing the grease buildup inside of the ducts.
- When the filter is saturated, swap the filter out easily and mess-free.
It’s that easy! Your kitchen will now have better airflow, reduced fire risk, and a cleaner exhaust system without the hassles of traditional filters. All you have to do is replace the wool filter when it’s full, without the scrubbing, soaking, and downtime.
ADVANTAGES OF USING SHEPHERD FILTERS
Traditional metal mesh or baffle filters only trap up to 40% of the grease and require continuous cleaning. With Shepherd Filters, we improve performance by capturing up to 98% of grease – making exhaust maintenance easier and more manageable for Australian commercial kitchens:
FIRE RISK REDUCTION
By stopping grease before it enters the exhaust, our fire-retardant wool shields grease buildup from open flames, greatly lowering the chance of a catastrophic kitchen fire.
SAVE ON CLEANING COSTS
With most grease captured in the disposable pad, there’s far less grease left to clean from ducts. Kitchens using our filters see a significant reduction in professional cleaning.
USES LESS WATER TO CLEAN
Disposable wool filters don’t need to be cleaned like other grease filters. This decreases your water usage and also removes the need to use degreasers and other chemicals.
RENEWABLE MATERIALS
Our grease filters are made of 100% pure wool, a renewable and sustainable substance. Sourced from Australian sheep, our filters do not rely on plastics or synthetic materials.
QUICK & EASY INSTALLATION
Filters are attached to specially designed metal frames that are installed into your existing canopy. Easy to remove and fit back in, Shepherd Filters are quick to replace.
100% BIODEGRADABLE
These wool filters are fully biodegradable and break down in landfills within just a few months. For a cleaner, more eco-friendly solution, choose Shepherd Filters.
