Cleaning challenges in Food Industry

Benefits of dry ice cleaning

• Waterless process: The dry ice soon gets vaporized during the blast cleaning process, leaving behind no residues. This cleaning procedure is ideal for industries that rely on dry cleaning methods such as bakeries.
• Non-corrosive: No abrasive cleaning agents are required, thus avoids damage to equipment surface integrity (ex: pitting, corrosion).
• Deep cleaning: Cleans various nooks and crannies that are difficult to reach using brushes or other traditional cleaning methods.
• Microorganism removal: Effective for the removal of Salmonella, E. coli and Listeria from stainless steel, ceramic tile and food grade plastic surfaces.
• Cost-effective: reduced labour and other sanitation associated costs (ex: chemicals, water savings).

“The food processing industry has been facing huge challenges while maintaining cleanliness and hygienic standards. Be it, surface care or shop-floor maintenance, there is always a risk of cross contamination with the traditional cleaning processes. As a result, the innovative dry ice blast cleaning is quickly gaining widespread acceptance as an alternative to conventional cleaning methods owing to the its capability of rapidly removing stubborn deposits from both processing equipment and the pr
oduction environment.”

• Clean hot: Equipment surfaces are blast cleaned while still warm, which prevents prolonged shutdown times.
• On-site cleaning: Mobile blast cleaning machinery eliminates the need for target equipment to be moved to designate cleaning areas.
• Non-hazardous: The dry ice blast cleaning procedure requires no toxic cleaning chemicals, solvents, sanitizers or detergents.
