From professional emptying and high-pressure cleaning to environmentally sound disposal (including emulsions and sewage)—we provide a full-service solution for your separator system. All work is performed in compliance with DIN 4040-100 and DIN 1999-100 standards, with comprehensive documentation.
Grease traps and light liquid separators are standard equipment in restaurants, commercial kitchens, gas stations, repair shops, and industrial facilities. They ensure that grease, oil, and light liquids are separated from wastewater—before they enter the sewer system and cause clogs, unpleasant odors, and environmental damage.
As the operator of a separator system, you are required under DIN 4040-100 (grease separators) and DIN 1999-100 (light liquid separators) to have your system regularly drained, cleaned, and maintained. The proper disposal of the collected materials may only be carried out by certified waste management companies.
Infravadis handles the entire waste management process: from on-time emptying using combined vacuum and flushing trucks, to high-pressure cleaning, and environmentally responsible disposal. All work is thoroughly documented—you receive legally compliant disposal records for your operational logbook and for submission to the authorities.
Our specially trained staff has many years of experience handling hazardous materials and ensures that all work is carried out safely. In addition, we offerleak testingfor your grease trap system as well as cleaning of the grease-carrying supply lines using professional pipe cleaning equipment.
Operators of separator systems have certain obligations: Regular emptying, complete documentation in the operating log, and a general inspection with a leak test every 5 years are required by law. Violations can result in fines, regulatory requirements, and, in the worst case, closure of the facility. We help you meet all these obligations on time.

Everything you need to know about grease trap emptying, oil separator maintenance, and your operational responsibilities.
Emptying intervals depend on the separator’s volume, the amount of grease, and regulatory requirements. In the food service industry, emptying once a month to once every three months is standard practice. DIN 4040-100 stipulates that the grease layer must not exceed 80% of the storage capacity.
Emptying and disposal may only be carried out by certified waste management companies with the appropriate permits. Infravadis holds all necessary permits and issues legally binding disposal certificates.
Operators who fail to have their separator systems properly maintained and drained risk fines, regulatory sanctions, and, in the worst case, the shutdown of their operations. In addition, insurance coverage may be voided in the event of damage caused by inadequate maintenance.
The cost depends on the volume of the separator, the travel distance, and the disposal costs. We will provide you with a transparent, fixed-price quote in advance—including emptying, cleaning, disposal, and documentation.
