UV-C light and Ozone Gas – Ideal for Whole Room Disinfection

We may be in lockdown but the food manufacturing industry is still thriving as it continues to supply supermarkets and other food outlets across the UK. Like many other industries, disinfecting these food manufacturing plants has become an even bigger challenge than usual with the Covid-19 pandemic putting extra pressure to keep these spaces bacteria and virus free.

Whole Room Disinfection Processes

So, it is with interest that we found an article in Clean Room Technology magazine published last summer, about the different methods for end of production cleaning and disinfection. The article stresses that, unless thoroughly disinfected, food contact surfaces can lead to the potential survival of micro-organisms in the wider environment, which is why whole room disinfection processes enables difficult-to-reach places to be thoroughly disinfected.

In addition, the article highlights the benefits of both ozone and UV-C light when it comes to whole room disinfection options.For example, it states that ozone’s high reactivity, penetrability and spontaneous decomposition into a non-toxic product make ozone a viable disinfectant for use in food production areas.It then goes on to report that the benefit of UV-C light is that it involves a non-contact method, no chemicals are used and therefore there is no taint or residue left on the surface.
