Frying Oil Enhancement Technology: Photo-Catalytic Ceramic Devices

Frylow Inc. is a globally recognized manufacturer and innovator in frying oil filtration and enhancement technologies, headquartered in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The company specializes in non-chemical, photo-catalytic ceramic devices designed to significantly extend the life of cooking oil in commercial deep fryers. With installations in restaurants, hotels, and institutional kitchens across more than 35 countries, Frylow is a leader in sustainable kitchen technology and operational cost reduction.

Brief History and Company Background

Founded in the early 2000s, Frylow was developed to address one of the foodservice industry’s persistent challenges: the high cost and environmental impact of frequently replacing frying oil. The company introduced a patented ceramic-based filtration technology that uses a photo-catalytic process to alter oil molecular structures, reducing oxidation and thermal degradation. Led by CEO Chris Huxtable, Frylow has expanded its footprint globally through a network of distributors and partnerships with multinational foodservice brands.

Core Business and Product Offerings

Frylow's main product line includes photo-catalytic ceramic devices engineered to extend the usable life of cooking oil and improve fried food quality:

  • Oil Life Extension Devices

    • FL-15: Compact unit for countertop fryers
    • FL-25: Standard model for medium-capacity fryers
    • FL-40: Heavy-duty model for large commercial fryers and high-volume kitchens
  • Core Technology

    • Utilizes a photo-catalytic ceramic matrix to reduce polar materials and carbon buildup
    • Passive, non-electric, and non-chemical device installed inside the fryer

Each device is designed for ease of installation and does not alter the taste or odor of fried foods. They are safe for use with vegetable oils, animal fats, and specialty oils.

Specialization and Unique Selling Proposition (USP)

Frylow’s USP is its proprietary, chemical-free technology that can:

  • Extend frying oil life by 50% to 150%
  • Maintain consistent oil quality over longer periods
  • Reduce oil absorption in food, resulting in lower calorie counts and crisper texture
  • Lower operating costs through reduced oil usage and disposal needs
  • Improve kitchen hygiene and environmental footprint

Unlike traditional filtration systems, Frylow requires no electrical power, no filter paper, and no chemical additives, making it a highly efficient and eco-friendly solution.
