Food waste in. Filtered liquid out — through the existing kitchen drain. Continuous, enzymatically dosed, fully automated.
Scraps loaded continuously during service. Top-loading.
Griffon 100 bioactive dosed automatically from the internal reservoir.
Microbes on the biochip bed break down the mass aerobically, 24/7.
Mesh stops particles above 0.8 mm. Liquid only passes.
Filtered effluent exits to the existing drain.
Griffon handles the food residues a professional kitchen actually produces — fruit and vegetables, peelings, bakery, meat, fish, eggs, dairy, and cooked pasta and rice. A few hard or non-organic items must be kept out to protect the mechanism.
Two consumables drive the digestion. Biochips — the porous medium that fills the chamber and hosts the microbial colonies — and Griffon 100, the Bacillus spore and enzyme solution dosed automatically onto them.
No batch cycles. No emptying. No off-hours. The system runs continuously and is loaded whenever scraps are generated.
Full stainless body, inverter-driven motor, internal enzyme reservoir, sealed digestion chamber. Top-loading from the upper side.
Mechanical and electrical interlocks prevent operation with the chamber open. Compliant with EU machinery directive 2006/42/EC.
Status monitoring, scale data, alarms, and logging readouts available locally. CSRD-aligned exports for ESG reporting integration.
Every Griffon digester complies with the EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC), Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU), and Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2014/30/EU). Twelve specific HRN EN ISO standards apply to construction, safety, electrical systems and food-contact hygiene. Full conformity declaration available below.
A 2022 research study by the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Geotechnical Engineering assessed the carbon footprint of food-waste management. After donation, it identifies on-site aerobic treatment (Griffon) as the most desirable option — with the lowest processing footprint of the devices tested.
Griffon runs on small single-phase motors with no high-power drying element. At maximum rated throughput that is about 0.03–0.06 kWh per kilogram of food residues (nameplate rating, a conservative upper bound) — consistent with the University of Zagreb figure of 21.40 kg CO₂/t. Any process that reduces mass by drying must instead supply the latent heat of vaporisation of water — roughly 0.45–0.55 kWh per kilogram of residues before losses. Because Griffon discharges water as liquid rather than evaporating it, that dominant energy term simply does not apply.
Electricity and water in. Filtered liquid out through the standard drain. No three-phase power required — single-phase 220–230 V at 50/60 Hz. Installs anywhere a normal kitchen appliance can be plugged in.
