WHY USE STAINLESS STEEL FOR CLEANING IN THE FOOD INDUSTRY?

With the Chrome® scrubber-dryer range, Eureka offers an effective solution, with machines adapted to every context from restaurant kitchens to the largest international food industries.

Food production processes often take place in humid environments and / or with exposure to corrosive substances such as animal fat, salts, preservatives, vegetable fat, sugary drinks, and alkaline residues.

If these elements are left in contact with traditional cleaning equipment for long periods of time, they gradually eat away at the frame’s protective coating, and on reaching the metal, the process of oxidation begins.

The rust that forms as a result, can contaminate food products that are being prepared in the areas where the machine is used. The structure of the machine also starts to erode, eventually weakening it to the point that it is no longer useable.

For many years the food industry has used stainless steel equipment to prevent the risk of corrosion (and the possible consequence of food contamination) in areas where food preparation, storage and sales take place. Work surfaces, refrigerators and machinery that come into direct contact with food are produced in stainless steel to ensure that the equipment is easy to keep clean and not prone to rusting.

Observing the excellent results achieved in these applications, Eureka decided to use stainless steel to protect their floor cleaning machines.

Chrome® – INOX stainless steel technology, is the line of scrubber-dryers that was born from this insight. It has been designed to the specific needs of the food sector, with frame and exposed metal components in stainless steel.
