Commercial Disinfectants FAQ's

Why is a surface sanitizer important?

Surface sanitizer is extremely important for the safety of any public facility, food processing facility, office or restaurant. It prevents the growth of bacteria from spreading on the surface and to food. A food contact surface sanitizer quickly kills pathogens and viruses such as salmonella and norovirus. Food borne illnesses can spread rapidly into the body if surface areas have not been sanitized efficiently.

What is Alpet D2 used for?

Alpet D2 is an effective disinfectant that kills viruses like norovirus on hard, food and non-food contact surfaces. The purpose of an Alpet D2 formula spray or wipe is to eliminate tested pathogens, keep your facility clean and protect consumers from sickness.

Is a quat sanitizer safe?

Both quat-free sanitizers and cleaners consisting of quat are safe to use. However, there are differences in each solution and their acceptable locations of use. A quat sanitizer is composed of stronger active ingredients in order to kill a broader range of microbes.

It's highly recommended to use a quat-free based sanitizer in facilities that contain dairy, produce yeast, use dry processors, handle water sensitive equipment and export to the EU.

How often should I be cleaning my floors?

There are many factors that determine how frequently hard floors should be cleaned. Foot traffic, liquid spills and floor type can all determine the best frequency for cleaning floors. Since Dry Step Bicarb is a deep-scrub treatment, a commercial facility can use it to clean floors between once a day or weekly.

What does HACCP stand for?

HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points. It is an approach for measuring the safety of products, procedures and prevention inside food production facilities and health care settings. The goal for HACCP is to protect food from spreading illness, like food-borne illness, and assuring that the food is safe and will not harm consumers.

When a product label displays "HACCP," it means that the product is designed to prevent foodborne illness in food production.

How often should surfaces be sanitized in a food processing area?

Surfaces in food processing areas can get contaminated by bacteria like Salmonella and Norovirus. So, it’s important to clean and sanitize them often with a foodservice surface sanitizer spray. A good idea is to sanitize whenever there is a chance of contamination and at least every four hours. Use the right amount, which is usually a few fluid ounces per gallon of water, and rinse if needed. The cleaning frequency may change based on the product you use and how you apply it.

What is commercial disinfecting?

Commercial disinfecting involves using specialized chemicals and equipment to eliminate germs, bacteria, and viruses from surfaces in commercial settings. This process helps prevent the spread of infectious diseases and ensures a safe environment for employees, customers, and visitors.

What is the selection criteria for commercial disinfectants?

When choosing commercial disinfectants, it's crucial to consider factors such as efficacy against a broad spectrum of pathogens, compatibility with various surfaces and equipment, ease of application, compliance with industry regulations, and safety for users and the environment. Look for products that are EPA-registered, have undergone rigorous testing for effectiveness, and offer clear usage instructions to ensure proper disinfection protocols are followed. Conducting a risk assessment of your facility's specific needs can also help determine the most suitable commercial disinfectant for your operations.

What is the difference between commercial and household disinfectants?

Commercial disinfectants are specifically formulated to meet the stringent requirements of various industries such as food service, commercial kitchens, janitorial & sanitation, and industrial hygiene. They are designed to eliminate a wider range of pathogens and maintain high levels of cleanliness in demanding environments. On the other hand, household disinfectants are generally milder and primarily used for routine cleaning in residential settings. They may not be as effective against certain types of germs or suitable for use on surfaces that come into contact with food or require heavy-duty disinfection.
