Food manufacturers cleaning in low-moisture and dry processing environments encounter very specific, critical needs. These include:

• Limiting water and moisture, which can trigger microbial growth from pathogens such as Salmonella and Cronobacter once introduced
  
• Reducing the time and manual labour of scraping, brushing and multi-product routines
  
• Keeping food contact surfaces free of biocidal residues to meet residue-sensitive requirements
  
• Restoring cleaning efficacy where traditional dry methods fall short, ideally with a single ready-to-use product
  

To meet these specific challenges, Ecolab provides a range of ready-to-use, no-rinse cleaners and disinfectants. These are built on hydrogen peroxide, organic acid and alcohol chemistries for dry and low-moisture environments. Non-flammable with low PPE requirements, they need no dilution or final rinse, are BPR compliant (PT4) and supported by Dietary Risk Assessment for non-rinse use:

• Inside production, for highly effective soil removal and one-step cleaning and disinfection of food contact surfaces and sensitive equipment, replacing ineffective methods like scraping
• Across the shift, for fast-drying mid-shift touch-ups and pre-start disinfection after extended downtime, safeguarding food safety while saving water, time and labour
