Cross-contamination is one of the biggest hygiene threats, especially in food production. If adequate precautions are not taken when moving from dirty to clean areas, microorganisms can spread rapidly. This is where hygiene barrier systems come into play.
Hygiene barrier is the whole of the systems that prevent the personnel entering the production area from entering without completing certain hygiene procedures. These systems provide integrated foot disinfection, hand disinfection and access control. Thus, hygiene steps are completed without skipping.
The use of hygiene barriers reduces the risk of cross-contamination and increases production safety. At the same time, entrances and exits become more controlled. These systems provide great convenience, especially in facilities with intensive production.
Hygiene barrier systems are usually modular and can be integrated with different equipment as required. For example, it can work together with units such as hand disinfection turnstile, boot washing machine.
As a result, one of the most effective ways to prevent cross-contamination is to create the right hygiene barriers at the entrance. Thus, both employee health is protected and product safety is guaranteed.
