Safe, secure and sustainable recycling solutions for used cooking oil

Oilsense provides used cooking oil management solutions that help hospitality businesses nationwide combat important operational issues.

Oilsense offers:

  • Reduced costs by optimising oil use
  • Enhanced income from oil rebate

The Oilsense range enables businesses across the hospitality sector to take complete control over their cooking oil, optimise its use and reduce fresh oil costs.

Oilsense’s unique filtration system prolongs the life of oil and its ‘fryer to storage tank’ feature eliminates the need for staff to manually handle hot and used oil providing a safe kitchen environment.  

Used oil is securely stored and the levels remotely monitored so that Oilsense can automatically plan collections when needed.  Oilsense provides regular quality reports to customers and information on their full oil activity is readily available to them through an exclusive online portal.   

Oil collected by Oilsense is recycled to use as environmentally-friendly bio-fuel by our specialist partners Agri Energy.

Across the whole food industry, from five star hotels to fast food chains, more and more operators are using Oilsense to enhance their kitchen efficiency, reduce costs, secure used oil stock and improve health and safety.

KFC Restaurants

KFC has completed the rollout of Oilsense in all its branded restaurants and majority of franchisees throughout the UK. The move by KFC to install Oilsense was a first in the fast food sector and delivers a major step-change to the industry’s carbon footprint in the UK.

Oilsense has already shown significant benefits in terms of operational efficiency and carbon footprint. This national rollout was embarked upon in 2010 after KFC awarded PDM Oilsense its ‘New Supplier of the Year’ award for 2009.

 “As a global company, watching our environmental impact is a fundamental part of our strategy, including finding a sustainable solution for used oil. Oilsense provides the environmental answer to this problem, as well as giving us practical solutions and health and safety benefits.”  Herbert Sebukima, equipment manager at KFC.
