Deodorization for the Hospitality Industry

Prevent odor problems in the environment

Cooking odors and odor nuisance from catering kitchen exhaust systems can cause many problems in residential neighborhoods and heavily populated areas. Increasingly, local residents are having to deal with odor nuisance from food odors blown out through kitchen exhaust systems or ventilation ducts. Especially at restaurants, snack bars and other catering establishments, this is a common source of nuisance.

Odor nuisance from range hoods: a growing problem for local residents and business owners

Environmental rules hospitality industry: mandatory measures against odor nuisance

Under current environmental regulations catering establishments may be required to take measures against odor nuisance. Municipalities and environmental services are increasingly checking for cooking odor nuisance. In the event of complaints or an odor nuisance report, a catering entrepreneur may be required to install a professional odor filter or air cleaning system.

Consider:

  • Activated carbon odor filters

  • Air filters for catering exhaust systems.

  • Air scrubbers or ozone systems

An exhaust hood with return air to the outside is generally already installed when the kitchen is installed but such an air cleaning system is not. This is a significant investment for a catering business and not always possible to install in the exhaust system.
