About UsThe Shortening Shuttle® was invented by Gary Heissen from Auburn Massachusetts. At the time he was operating a restaurant cleaning business. Seeing how Hot waste oil was being transported, he knew there must be a better way. So, around 1987 the Shortening Shuttle® was conceived. The Shortening Shuttle® began being marketed to restaurants in the local area and through direct mail marketing to major fast food chains throughout the United States. In 1989 it was purchased by Worcester Industrial Products Corp located in Worcester Massachusetts. Since then demand has steadily grown. Every day we are UPS shipping Shortening Shuttle® all over the United States, Canada and occasionally around the world. Over the years we have developed new models to meet the needs of different fryer drain heights and different dumpster heights. Our MissionOur mission is to eliminate the headaches, mess, and bucket burn hazards associated with changing HOT waste oil from deep fat fryers. Our goal it to make the job of changing hot waste fryer oil safe, simple, swift and cost effective. We want to take the "yuck' out of changing fryer oil. It is not an easy task once you realize when and by whom the oil in a deep fryer is changed. |
