• Additive for concrete : permanent waterprofing and anti stain
  DPC (Deep Penetrating Capillary) crystalline technology is a waterproofing chemical treatment that, when added to the concrete mix as an additive or used as a coating, increases the durability of concrete by sealing pores, capillaries and micro-fractures with a needle-like crystalline formation that is insoluble and highly resistant.
• Supershield’s active components react chemically with the co-products of cement hydration, forming a crystalline structure that becomes part of the concrete mass, making it impervious to moisture and liquids entering from every direction, but allowing the passage of water vapour and allowing the structure to breathe.
• The crystalline structure is established when there is moisture. Also in time, if settlement cracks form, new water trying to enter concrete triggers a new crystal growth process which seals cracks of up to 0.4 mm.
• The crystalline structures, being formed inside the concrete mass and not exposed to the surface, cannot deteriorate, whereas membranes and other superficial waterproof coatings can easily be damaged. Simply put, the DPC system waterproofs and protects concrete permanently, therefore increasing its durability.

A floor scrubber dryer is considered to be the ideal floor cleaner for any hard floor. It works by scrubbing, cleaning and drying your floor. Using a floor scrubber dryer has multiple benefits. The first of which is that it is an incredibly efficient and easy to use method of cleaning. It saves huge amounts of time and effort against the traditional mop and bucket method of cleaning. Its cleaning ability is far more effective than a mop. It cleans uniformly and consistently at all times ensuring that you do not have to go back over the floor “for the bits you missed” and that you have a reliable result each time it is used. This efficient cleaning will also be saving you money in labour costs!

From a Health and Safety perspective the use of a scrubber dryer brings many advantages. Both the water and cleaning chemicals are contained within the machine, thus preventing chemical spills or over flowing buckets causing an issue. Along a similar line, as the machine dries the floor after it cleans this prevents any slip hazards or disruption waiting for the floor to dry!

Listeria is a very common bacterium that adapts well in many environments. Once established in a food production facility, some strains of Listeria can be very difficult to eliminate. This post highlights the most common hideouts for Listeria in food production environments, and offers useful advice on how to optimise environmental Listeria control.

When to be concerned about Listeria?
Because Listeria is common in the environment and can be found in soil, water, animal guts and on raw foods, the bacteria can easily be introduced into and spread throughout food production facilities.

Listeria also can form biofilms that help them attach to the surface of floor, drains and equipment – making them more difficult to remove during cleaning, and protecting them from drought, heat and standard cleaning and disinfection chemicals. Listeria biofilm is often the source of food product cross-contamination.

Additionally, Listeria can grow in cold environments and can survive freezing temperatures. These conditions are often used to control microbial growth, but for Listeria they serve only to restrict the growth of competitors. This means that refrigerated and frozen foods still are at risk.

Most ready-to-eat food processing environments are chilled and provide the nutrients and moisture required for Listeria growth. So, there’s good reason for being concerned about Listeria contamination if you produce ready-to-eat, chilled food.

Listeria hideouts and control in food production facilities

1. Floors

Floors that are made of inappropriate materials or that have been installed poorly can lead to static water pools, water trap points or water absorption. Badly constructed or poorly sealed wall-to-floor or drain-to-floor joints often lead to water becoming trapped, as can poorly maintained and damaged floors with cracks, holes or gaps. All these situations can lead to Listeria colonisation. Consequently, the appropriate selection, installation and maintenance of your production floor are very important with regard to Listeria control.4

2. Drains

If Listeria is present in your food production facility, it will most likely be found in your drains. The reason for this is that drains act as a collection points for most of the Listeria-contaminated water on site, and then provide the nutrients and moisture required for the Listeria to grow.

Even though cleaning drains is an unpleasant and complex task, it is critical for Listeria control. Dirty drains can be a source of Listeria contamination, and flooded drains can spread listeria via pools of contaminated water on the floor. Drains should (if possible) only be cleaned during production downtime, and you’ll need to give aerosols time to settle before rinsing and disinfecting your food contact surfaces.

How to avoid Listeria contamination from floors and drains ??

Listeria can be transferred from contaminated floors and drains to other food production areas – and to food itself – in several ways. These include people’s footware, equipment and trolley wheels, and cleaning equipment.

The best way to avoid Listeria contamination from your floors and drains is to clean and disinfect them regularly. Remember to clean floor and drains in a way that minimizes contamination of other surfaces in the room. The use of high-pressure hoses or mechanical scrubbing will increase the risk of Listeria aerosolisation, where the bacteria spread through the air into other areas and onto equipment, food, and food contact surfaces. Instead, use dedicated colour-coded manual cleaning tools for floor and drain cleaning. Tools used to clean floors should have a different colour from those used to clean drains and from those used to clean food contact surfaces.

Processing equipment
Like floors and drains, hard-to-clean areas on and inside food processing equipment can allow for water accumulation and contamination, which can then lead to Listeria colonisation and growth.

To minimize the risk, it’s essential to use hygienically designed processing equipment, which is easy to clean and made of suitable food contact-compliant materials. The frequency of cleaning and disinfection should be based on risk assessment, but for equipment used to process chilled ready-to-eat foods, it should probably be at least once a day.

Daily cleaning should be supplemented with regular equipment stripdowns and deep cleaning to ensure that areas that are difficult to reach during daily cleaning are controlled. Again, the frequency of deep cleaning should be based on risk assessment.

Cleaning equipment

Cleaning equipment can be a major source of Listeria contamination – with surveys showing that up to 47 percent of cleaning equipment in food-processing areas test positive for Listeria (Campden BRI, 1990).

To prevent Listeria contamination, there are two important factors to consider for your cleaning equipment: hygienic design and proper maintenance.

Polished concrete is considered a ultimate and sustainable design flooring option because it makes use of the materials already present. Most modern buildings are built on a concrete slab; polishing the exposed concrete eliminates the energy and material consumed by applying a floor covering. It is something to consider when building or modernizing towards a more green solution.

Corrosion is damage or degradation of metals due to redox reactions between a metal and various substances in its environment which produce unwanted compounds. In everyday language, corrosion is called rubber. The most common example of corrosion is iron scraping. Corrosion is one of the main problems in the industrial world. Of course, because corrosion causes failure in the material which leads to damage to the equipment or failure in the operation which results in no small losses

 

Degreasing consists in the removal of any kind of grease and dirt traces from the stainless steel metalwork, before submitting it to any heat treatment or surface finishing. It is important to remove grease and dirt traces, since the presence of organic molecules, being made up essentially of carbon, may result dangerous: indeed, it may be possible that the carbon goes into the matrix material during a heat treatment, causing an aesthetic damage to the piece and mainly a local degradation of its characteristics. Enrichment in carbon may negatively affect mechanical properties of the piece, through hardening and embrittlement processes, but especially reducing its resistance to corrosion.

Degreasing is fundamental in order to prevent eventual corrosion problems or spots during pickling, polishing, grinding/silk finishing treatments. In fact, grease and oil residues may alterthe efficiency of a pickling bath. Degreasing may be carried out with organic solvents, taking advantage of the chemical principle “the similar dissolves the similar”, or with alkali solvents or water-based acids. In this second case the action is on the hydrophilic part of the compound.
