Food manufacturing industry

One of the main tasks of food factories is to ensure the consumer health safety by releasing safe products. A factory can meet these requirements only observing the approved sanitary rules and regulations.

At food factories, it is mandatory to organize and conduct washing and disinfection of production facilities, equipment, inventory, containers, vehicles. First, this is required for microbiological safety of the supplied raw materials and manufactured products. Second, this allows for preventing secondary contamination with pathogenic microorganisms and viruses. Finally, it helps to prevent infectious diseases among working personnel.

The specifics of infectious safety at food factories

Necessity to create aseptic conditions for food production;
Constant confirmation of the room cleanliness class;
Required monitoring of the pharmaceutical products manufacturing process (content of microorganisms and viruses on the products surfaces, in the air and on the room surfaces);
Measures / protocols to prevent the products and manufacturing facilities contamination by microorganisms and viruses;
Risk of introducing microorganisms and viruses with cargos delivered to the cleanroom;
Possibility of cleanrooms and pharmaceutical products contamination with human pathogenic microflora;
Possibility of cross-contamination among the working personnel with infections and viruses.

The specifics of disinfection measures in clean rooms of food factories

Need for repeated disinfection to preserve and constantly maintain microbiological purity with the 99.9 % or more efficiency;
Limitations for using most chemical disinfectant classes and physical disinfection methods under conditions of continuous production cycle;
Corrosive effect of the used inventory and equipment on working surfaces;
Lack of official regulations on scheduled and emergency cleanrooms disinfection, especially in cases of identifying various "undesirable microorganisms".

Pulsed ultraviolet units allow the food factories to successfully cope with a whole number of problems:

Disinfection of food factory premises with 99.99 % or higher efficiency within shortest time;
Rapid disinfection of a large rooms’ number within one working shift during a routine break, without disrupting the work schedule;
Ensuring microbiological cleanliness of products and production facilities, including inactivation of such microorganisms and viruses that are highly resistant to traditional disinfectants, i.e. mold and yeast fungi;
Increasing the products shelf life;
Reducing financial losses associated with losses during production, returns from buyers;
Individual and collective protection of patients and working staff from bacteria and viruses, including the new SARS-COV-2 coronavirus;
Financial expenses’ reduction by avoiding payments for temporary disability certificates of the personnel, as well as for the infection foci elimination;
