Our Mission
Oil Screen - Reven® North America, Inc., is an exhaust filtration fabricator founded on the assumption that there is an intrinsic value, personal reward and financial reward in producing tangible products and services that offer customers more value than they expect to receive. We, meaning each employee of Oil Screen - Reven® North America, Inc., succeed only when our customers succeed. We are part of a much larger community, towards which we are compelled to act responsibly. We act responsibly when we help protect our environment, provide fair economic opportunity, work safely, and consider the person in all of our business affairs. Our central focus is the production of exhaust canopies, exhaust filtration and industrial air filtration systems. We maintain a solid core of business of proprietary products, marketed by qualified regional sales representatives and sold through a national network of restaurant supply companies. In short, we are a robust company that adapts to the ups and downs in individual industries, so our customers can depend on us to be there when they need us, in good and bad times.
Patented Technology
The oil and grease separation takes place in three stages:
Stage 1 - Pre-separation through turbulences and flow separation in chamber 1.
Stage 2 - Cyclone effect in chamber 2 with an extremely high medium surface tension, release and re-establishment of the tension. Micro particles are ejected through small rotating cyclones.
Stage 3 - The airflow in an Oil Screen Kitchen Separator consists of individual cyclones. They pass through the profiled element in such a way that two cyclones flow into a common chamber 3.
A specific agglomeration process, as well as turbulences with airflow separation, provides for the separation of micro particles. The separated fluids run vertically off to the bottom of the kitchen separator and are evacuated by a special drainage process. Most of the separated solid particles run off together with the liquid. This results in a self-cleaning effect because the fluid mass is greater than the solid mass.
LEED Certification
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, better known as LEED, was formed in 2000 and has become a cornerstone in building standards and environmental concerns. The goal of LEED is to make sure the performance of each building meets the environmental needs of the community, as well as the building architecture itself, maintaining a more eco-friendly design.
As conservation and sustainability become more and more important to the construction and renovation industries, we at Oil Screen keep getting questions about the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System. Since we share such a similar vision of the power of conservation, it's important that you know the facts about LEED.
What is LEED?
The LEED Green Building Rating System is a national standard developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). LEED is a nationally recognized benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED also provides the building owners and operators with the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings' performance. The LEED program provides consistent, credible standards for the design and maintenance of buildings that are healthy places for their occupants, energy and cost efficient, and built with sustainable materials.
Why is LEED important?
We live in a world where concerns about the environment and sustainable development are a necessary and growing consideration for everyone. Business and industry are paying attention to this trend because energy efficiency also affects overhead and profitability, as well as reflecting good citizen values. According to the USGBC, LEED-certified buildings cost less to operate and maintain, are healthier places to live and work in, conserve energy and water, and reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions (see www.usgbc.org for more information).
What is LEED certification?
LEED certification is a third‐party validation of a building's green performance, and it demonstrates that building green can provide benefits without higher costs. LEED credits are awarded based on criteria in five categories of performance. Architects and building planners apply for this certification, and a building project must meet prerequisites to be registered. A project must also achieve a minimum number of points to earn a basic "Certified" level of LEED certification. The number of points the project earns determines the level of LEED certification (Certified, Silver, Gold or Platinum).
Can products be LEED certified?
No. LEED applies to the environmental performance of overall green building projects, and the USGBC does not endorse, promote or certify the products or services of any company. However, individual manufacturers' products can contribute credits under the LEED rating system. Oil Screen exhaust canopies and kitchen filtration systems can help contribute to the five categories of performance - Water Efficiency, Energy & Atmosphere, Material & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality and Innovation in Design. Oil Screen has long been interested in the relationship between the environment and how our products are engineered as evidenced by the high efficiency separation of our kitchen separators. These separators remove and drain liquid particulate, eliminating the need for water-wash and UV light technology.
Our kitchen exhaust canopies require no additional energy input and work at a low static resistance saving energy. Our separators are indestructible, washable and reusable, keeping ducts and exhaust fans cleaner, and extending the life of our ecology system filters. This reduces waste to the environment and protects roof tops and building facades.
