Best Sanitizers has launched a sanitizing station which sprays Alpet D2 Surface Sanitizer to the bottom of a worker's boots.

The  36”W x 38”L x 45”H HACCP Defender allegedly offers pathogen protection for food processing facilities, nutraceutical plants, pharmaceutical plants, clinical research labs and clean rooms by reducing cross-contamination from footwear before employees enter a production area.

It has a one-way, pass-through design with a dry sanitizing floor mat and six adjustable spray nozzles to control the volume of chemicals used.

Pathogen reduction

This is a significant step forward for food processors looking for an added measure of pathogen reduction. Especially those processors concerned about moisture control​,” said Ryan Witt, VP sales and marketing, Best Sanitizers.

Alpet D2 Surface Sanitizer is used in the food processing industry for sanitizing tools, hard surfaces and water sensitive equipment. It is a 58% isopropyl alcohol/quaternary formulation that is a ready-to-use (RTU), no-rinse product.

Limits bacteria

Doug Craven, corporate manager of sanitation, Hormel Foods’ added the best defense against pathogen growth niche development in our production areas is by limiting the potential ingress of the bacteria.

The HACCP Defender allows us to consistently treat employees’ footwear prior to entering our low moisture production areas and help us reduce the risk of potential pathogen ingress​,” he said.
