2. Kitchen oil and
grease build-up
starts in the metal
filters then travels
through the hoods
and ducts all the
way to the roof. It’s
an ongoing problem
that needs a easy
cost effective
solution.
LOW GREASE CAPTURE
REGULAR GREASE FILTER
LOW FILTRATION EFFICIENCY

3. Many commercial kitchens do their grease hood cleaning nightly or
weekly, amounting to large labour costs. Repairs and maintenance
call out fees can be high due to grease hood cleaning and on the
rooftops etc.
Chemical cleaners are not only expensive but can be toxic to humans.
Cleaning products that are flushed down the drain can have a serious
impact on the environment.
Kitchen filter cleaning plus downtime from kitchen closure, due to
maintenance, can be costly and very inconvenient.
Grease build-up in the hood, canopy
and duct can lead to fires, loss of
income, rejection of insurance
claims due to lack of maintenance
and ultimately restaurant closure.

THE SOLUTION!
Our disposable oil and grease filters offer the best
solution for kitchen exhaust filters, as they capture
up to 98% of the grease particles compared to some
regular metal baffle filters, that only capture
between 18-20% of these same grease particles.
Shepherd Filters are easily installed when needed and
can be disposed with your regular rubbish.
They are made from wool, which makes them not
only fire retardant but also completely
biodegradable. Shepherd Filters are available in all
sizes and retrofit to all kitchen exhaust systems.

THE BENEFITS!
Shepherd Filters capture the grease before it enters the
exhaust system reducing the grease build-up and risk of
fires. Wool is a natural fire retardant material.
Airborne grease is prevented from entering the kitchen
hood exhaust system and provides immediate savings by
reducing labour costs associated with cleaning metal
grease filters, therefore reducing the number of kitchen
duct cleanings dramatically.
Reducing the current kitchen duct cleaning schedule, along
with reduced grease hood cleanings, greatly reduces the
amount of water and chemicals used to maintain a clean
system.
Save energy with a cleaner kitchen exhaust system, rooftop
fans, HVAC and other rooftop equipment results in more
efficient operation of the equipment, not to mention less
maintenance. Wool is a renewable material source.
Shepherd Filters are made from Australian Wool. The filter
media is carbon-neutral and will breakdown in the landfill.
In today’s world we all need to do our part to help the
environment.
Shepherd Filters are simply installed upstream / in front of
a grease kitchen filter that can be removed and disposed of
in seconds.
