Best Grease Trap Solutions for Restaurants in Canada 2025

If you run a restaurant or commercial kitchen in Canada, you already know about grease traps, and the mess, smell, and maintenance headaches they can bring. But did you know there’s a smarter, more efficient way to manage grease that keeps you compliant and cuts down on costs?

Unlike traditional passive grease traps (which just hold grease until someone gets around to cleaning them), Automatic Grease Removal Devices (AGRDs) do the heavy lifting for you. Systems like the Grease Guardian® actively skim grease out of wastewater daily, depositing it neatly into a separate container. That means no build-up, no nasty overflows, and no scrambling to schedule last-minute pump-outs before an inspection.

Municipalities across Canada, Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and beyond, are tightening their grease regulations, and failure to comply can lead to costly fines or shutdowns. AGRDs help you stay ahead by ensuring you’re not just meeting regulations, but exceeding them.

But staying compliant is just the beginning.

Automatic Grease Removal Devices (AGRDs) offer a smarter, cleaner, and more reliable way to manage kitchen grease. Unlike passive or inground traps that require regular pump-outs and are prone to blockages, AGRDs remove grease automatically throughout the day, reducing reliance on third-party services and cutting down on emergency plumbing costs. They work continuously in the background, so your kitchen staff can focus on service, not sludge.
