FULL Anti-bac FILLING VALVE SYSTEM

FILLERS' CLEANING

Fillers planned according to the principles of Hygienic Design are conceived to optimise the cleaning process and to avoid that the packaging machine's components, and especially the materials in contact with the product, become themselves a source of contamination.
Nonetheless, it is always advisable to carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding the fillers' cleaning and sanitisation operations.
To prevent the development of microorganisms inside the packaging machine, it is especially important to:
• accurately remove organic residues
• always perform visual checks
• regularly sanitize surfaces, on the basis of production hours
• carry out ATP swab testing

In the worst-case scenario, the proliferation of microflora on a surface can lead to the formation of a biofilm, a microbial cells aggregate which becomes a source of contamination and can:
• pose a danger to human health due to the potential presence of pathogenic microorganisms
• damage production plants, causing the formation of biofouling in the equipment, thus reducing operational efficiency

When a biofilm is consistently present on a surface, removing it is very difficult, because microorganism aggregates are much more resistant to disinfectants than free-floating microorganisms.
Removal requires very aggressive and expensive treatments, which are not always 100% effective.

How can we then avoid contamination in food packaging and, in particular, the formation of biofilms?
