Vegetables & Potatoes

Cognituv’s automated hygiene solutions are pivotal for the food and beverage industry, focusing on ensuring stringent regulatory compliance. By effectively managing air quality and maintaining superior surface cleanliness, these systems not only optimize HVAC efficiency, but also significantly reduce chemical use. Central to maintaining industry standards, they facilitate rigorous adherence to health and safety regulations, thereby supporting operational integrity and ensuring a sustainable, compliant production environment.

Enhancing Vegetable & Potato Safety with UV-C Technology

Fresh vegetables and potatoes are highly susceptible to microbial contamination, mold growth, and spoilage during storage and processing. Factors like humidity, airborne pathogens, and surface bacteria can lead to reduced shelf life, quality loss, and increased food waste.

UV-C technology provides a powerful, chemical-free solution for improving hygiene and extending the freshness of vegetables and potatoes. By integrating UV-C disinfection into storage facilities, processing lines, and packaging areas, producers can significantly reduce pathogens like E. coli, Salmonella, and mold spores. This helps maintain product integrity, reduce post-harvest losses, and enhance food safety.

Additionally, UV-C can be used to disinfect rinse water and conveyor belts, minimizing cross-contamination risks without the need for excessive chemical treatments. With UV-C solutions, vegetable and potato processors can achieve higher sanitation standards, prolong shelf life, and deliver safer, fresher produce to consumers.
