Food Hygiene Products

Christeyns’ wide range of surface disinfectants offers solutions for all hygiene needs in the food industry. Our disinfectants for the food industry have a wide range of biocidal active substances to successfully solve any microbiological contamination problem on open surfaces.

We also offer circuit disinfectant products to eliminate microbiological contamination inside CIP systems. This is made possible by the ability of these disinfectant cleaners to automatically control their dosage by measuring conductivity.

Furthermore, we offer disinfectants for automatic washing machines to eliminate microbiological contamination in cheese moulds, crates, bottles, etc.

Airborne Disinfection / Fogging Cleaning

Surface and room area disinfection (ASD) is a very appropriate technology to complete cleaning and disinfection processes, as it can reach critical areas that would be difficult to access with traditional techniques. DSVA ensures fast, reliable, and safe disinfection of spaces such as offices, laboratories, and production areas in the food industry.

This type of disinfection is applied by means of cold fogging equipment using compressed air as the driving force. Depending on the nozzle, a particle size of approximately 30 μm is achieved, which occupies the entire volume of the rooms where it is applied. The disinfectant is dispersed in the form of small mist-like droplets to form a fog.

The most common disinfectants for this application are usually quaternary ammonium, hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid and glutaraldehyde.

Washing machines cleaning & disinfection

Cleaning and disinfection of crates, moulds, hooks, etc. is usually carried out in automatic equipment or tunnel washers. Cleaning in tunnel washers requires specialised professional cleaning products to remove dirt and pathogenic microorganisms effectively, without the formation of foam. Our range includes industrial detergent products for cleaning and disinfection, as well as products for the maintenance of the washing tunnels themselves.

The Christeyns range includes industrial detergent products for cleaning and disinfection of crates, moulds in dairies and other industries, trays, pallets, etc., as well as products for automatic floor scrubbing and other automatic applications. Products are also available for the maintenance of the washing tunnels themselves.

Conveyor belt cleaning & disinfection system

Conveyor belts in the food industry can be the source of many cross-contaminations. Due to the characteristics of the plastic materials they are made of, and the continuous use they are given, discontinuities often appear on the surface which make it difficult to sanitise them correctly, making them suitable substrates for the formation of biofilms and a niche for numerous microorganisms which can contaminate foodstuffs.

To avoid this process and to achieve correct, constant and uniform microbiological results, the implementation of an Automatic Belt Sanitising System is recommended. The HAC SYSTEM is custom-designed, taking into account the particular characteristics of each plant and allows savings of more than 40% in water, detergents and disinfectants, as well as reducing the time and energy used to carry out these tasks.

Christeyns’ range of products for the automatic cleaning and disinfection of conveyor belts includes products specifically designed to remove the build-up of dirt and microorganisms on conveyor belts, thus ensuring safe and effective cleaning.

Among the products available are specific detergents, disinfectants and degreasers for conveyor belts. These products can be used in automatic cleaning and disinfection systems such as the HAC SYSTEM. Christeyns also offers specific detergents for the maintenance and protection of conveyor belts, helping to prolong their service life and reduce replacement costs.

Hygiene through cavitation

Christeyns offers innovative products for cleaning and disinfection systems for the food industry based on ultrasone technology through cavitation. This systems significantly optimise cleaning processes, both in terms of time and efficiency, and automate them. Cavitation, in combination with high temperatures and specific chemicals, is used to effectively remove dirt and grease, and to precisely disinfect micro-organisms and biofilms.

The right selection of cleaning chemicals is essential to ensure the success of the process and is adapted according to the type of contamination, the surface to be cleaned, the properties of the water, etc.

Christeyns offers its customers personalised advice on the choice of these products. In addition to good cleaning and disinfection properties, the chemical chosen must be compatible with the material to be cleaned. Chemicals for ultrasone cleaning that effectively clean all types of utensils or cutting elements of machinery and equipment, as well as the different chains of hooks (slaughtering, evisceration, airing, classification and quartering).
