It’s not only consumers who are using social media. Employees can share pictures of work environment health hazards – the mouldy ice cream machine and the unappetising food production line. These photos can quickly spread and damage a company’s reputation.


For this reason – and, of course, for the safety of their employees – businesses both big and small are looking for ways to do a better job with hygiene, and extending their efforts beyond minimum regulatory requirements. They aim to create a culture of cleanliness and safety that reaches all corners of the company, from the production line to the supply closet. They’re safeguarding their employees and brand from social media’s negative impact and maintaining consumer trust.


UV shows the way to a healthier workplace


In the past, chemicals such as chlorine were the go- to disinfection method and are still widely used in the food industry, but chlorine comes with a lot of concerns attached. It causes environmental damage when it enters waterways, requires special storage and poses safety risks.

Additionally, using chlorine in food processing can taint the taste and smell of the product.


UV disinfection is a better alternative. It does not change the taste or odour of products, while it inactivates any bacteria, virus or fungus present. It also has a smaller carbon footprint, lower energy consumption and almost no safety concerns.


UV can eliminate almost all known viruses, bacteria and fungi, making it a powerful disinfection solution. It’s also increasingly popular due to its effectiveness against emerging contaminants. It has become the preferred choice in many industries – even the swimming pool industry, where traditional chemicals like chlorine are no longer effective against certain waterborne pathogens like cryptosporidium parasites. Overall, UV disinfection checks all the boxes regarding safety, sustainability and efficacy.


In the post-COVID world, keeping hygiene standards high is crucial. This is where full facility disinfection comes in. By thoroughly disinfecting the air, water and surfaces in their facilities, businesses can create a safer environment, protect public health better and keep operations performing at their peak.
