A Guide To Cleaning, Sanitizing, And Disinfecting For Produce Farms
The best way to help reduce the risk of microbial contamination in farm produce is to use good sanitization practices during the production, harvesting, and packaging of produce. Good food handling practices are essential for everyone. But apart from that, it is important to hire professional disinfecting services to clean, sanitize and disinfect the food contact surfaces. Food contact surfaces are those that come in contact with food, either directly or indirectly. Before you decide on which disinfection company in Dubai to hire, it is important that you understand the difference between cleaning, sanitization and disinfection. These terms are often used interchangeably, but they have different meanings. Cleaning- Cleaning is the process that is used to remove dirt, germs, and other impurities from a surface. It is a hassle-free process that requires you to clean a surface with a sanitary cloth and a mixture of soap or detergent and water.
Sanitization- Sanitization is the process of treating a surface with a sanitizing agent in order to reduce the level of microorganism contamination to an appropriate and non-harmful level, as judged by the public health standard. Disinfection- The process of killing all the germs on the surface with the help of a chemical agent is known as disinfection. It doesn’t clean the surface, but it kills the germs and lowers the risk of spreading infections. Although according to safety guidelines it is essential to sanitize and disinfect surfaces with the help of disinfecting cleaning services to avoid the spread of Coronavirus, it is also important to note that things need to be done carefully when farm produce is involved. Ideally, we would recommend reading the label on the products before using them, but since Coronavirus is a fairly new virus, there is nothing concrete pertaining to which products will be appropriate to your farm produce. Be especially careful while using disinfectants since they are strong chemical agents and should be used with caution. There are various sanitizer and disinfectant dose calculators that you can refer to when working with your farm produce and food contact surfaces.
