Disinfectants: clean work in wholesale
Many people immediately associate disinfectants with doctors' surgeries, hospitals and other medical facilities. However, the areas of application of the bacteria killer are far more diverse: thorough disinfection is important wherever the transmission of viruses and bacteria must be avoided at all costs. This applies in particular to the food industry and catering. Because when it comes to the production, processing, preparation and tasting of
food, the highest hygiene regulations apply. At Ehlert, we help you to comply with strict specifications and rules with our online range - you are on the safe side with our products.
HACCP and hygiene management
The HACCP concept is recommended to restaurateurs and wholesalers as a tool for self-monitoring hygiene measures. The abbreviation stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, to put it in a nutshell. These broadly cover the following areas of hygiene:
- Personnel hygiene: A well-groomed appearance is as much a part of gastronomy as cake is to coffee. Clean and fresh work clothing, hair and beard nets and gloves are particularly important here. Above all, hand cleaning and disinfection must not be neglected.
- Pest control: The list of uninvited guests in a commercial kitchen is long: from moths to mice and rats - they all have no place in the food industry. Pest infestations should always be avoided, detected early and combated.
- Kitchen hygiene: Work surfaces in particular should be regularly checked for hygiene. They harbor great potential for germ transmission and therefore also for cross-contamination. Especially after processing meat, poultry, eggs and fish, all utensils that have come into contact with these foods should be thoroughly treated with disinfectant. In this way, dangerous infections caused by the transmission of pathogens such as salmonella can be avoided.
- Incoming goods inspection: Special care must be taken when transporting and storing food. It is therefore essential to check the best-before date and characteristics such as appearance, smell and taste. For food whose packaging is already damaged, you should not hesitate for long and dispose of it immediately.
Disinfectants from Ehlert: Fast and safe
Ehlert's disinfectants can quickly and reliably kill germs and microorganisms that colonize the skin flora. Unlike hand washing, pathogens are not merely dispersed: Soap removes dirt, but pathogens are not killed safely or quickly enough. Thorough hand washing also takes significantly longer than quick hand disinfection. For a satisfactory result, hands should be thoroughly soaped for several minutes. Washing hands too often dries out the skin in the long term, whereas disinfecting is much gentler. At Ehlert, we have a range of different disinfectants available for you that are particularly gentle on the skin yet effective - whether for disinfecting the skin after contact with sick people or to ensure food safety in industry and catering.
