Applications
Food Processing
Paqualyte is widely used in food processing for its effective antimicrobial properties, it is effective against a wide range of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This makes it highly valuable in ensuring food safety as Paqualyte acts quickly, often within seconds to minutes, to kill microorganisms, which is crucial in fast-paced food processing environments.
Hypoclorous Acid (HOCL), Paqualyte’s drastic agent , has been approved by various health and safety authorities in the USA and Europe, including the us food and Drug administration (FDA) and the environmental protection Agency (EPA) for use as a sanitizer and disinfectant in food production and is applied directly to food products such as fruits, vegetables, meat and poultry to reduce microbial load and make is safer for consumption without any harmful substances for the consumer.
Fruit and Vegtables Processing
One of the biggest advantages of Paqualyte in the food Processing Industry is that food items such as fruits and vegetables may be rinsed and soaked immediately once harvested ensuring pathogen elimination without affecting food quality.
Paqualytes minimal residues
Paqualyte’s minimal residues compared to other sanitizers like chlorine or bleach, ensures no toxic residues are present making it ideal for fruit and vegetables.
It does not require rinsing after application, simplifying the sanitation process, as hypochlorous acid decomposes into water after its disinfection window. Additionally, Paqualyte has minimal impact on the odor and taste of food products.
