Biotroop launched to tackle FOGS

Biotroop: positioned as both cost-efficient and eco-friendly

Biotroop, UAE’s latest grease trap solutions product and a joint initiative by Saniservice and SmartPipe System, is set to help thousands of commercial and business units tackle the hazards of drainage FOGS (fats, oil, grease, and starches), which has financially impacted business and real estate owners; in particular hospitality clients in yearly sewer clog treatment and removal costs.

Manufactured using the latest developments in bio-based chemistry, yet compatible with more traditional chemistries, Biotroop is both the cost-efficient and eco-friendly solution to the growing problems of FOGS and their negative impacts. The formulation of Biotroop is non-caustic and non-corrosive, ensuring a high degree of product purity, and designed for longevity in use via suitable dispensing equipment. The new venture from Smartpipe and Saniservice helps keep pipes clean, functional, and odorless, tackling the accumulation of fat, oil and grease, and other organic matter in an environmentally sustainable manner. Something many Food and beverage (F&B) outlets struggle with on a yearly basis.

The “brains of the operation” include the Swiss disinfectant expert and leader in the UAE, Saniservice, who specialises in engineering the right formulas and products that revolutionise sanitisation and disinfection services for households and businesses in the country.

Swiss Pioneer and Founder and CEO of Saniservice, Francois Larsen, said: “We are proud to have Biotroop added in our portfolio of sanitisation products and services that continue to service both the public and private sectors across the UAE. Our journey in the sanitisation business continues to grow rapidly, with a futuristic outlook to future challenges and issues which both businesses and community members can face in the households or workspaces, and respond with the right product and service that deliver world-class sanitisation, safety and protection results.”

He added: “Biotroop allows UAE businesses, homeowners and general consumers to take 10 steps ahead in combating the serious issues of FOGS, thanks to its cost-effective and eco-friendly components that ultimately will solve many sewage pipe problem in the country. In Europe FOGS are costing businesses and households annually millions of Euros, and in the UK alone, it is costing up to EUR 120 billion tackling over 300,000 blockages a year. With Biotroop, we are certain that this would position the UAE at a more competitive advantage globally in the waste management and pipeline sector.”
