SPECIALTY FOOD STORES
The initial image that a high end specialty food store strives to create for one entering its facility is a commitment to quality and customer service. The VAPORSTRIKE system will ensure that customers are in an aesthetically pleasing environment that is visually and physically clean. This is achieved by using vapor as the primary cleansing agent because it is faster, more effective, and produces results superior to any
chemical. Key interface sites, e.g., display cases, visible food preparation areas, kitchen
equipment, refrigeration units, thresholds, fixtures, etc., will be showplaces. As an added benefit,
food may remain in areas being cleaned because of the total absence of chemicals in the process.
The medical community has historically used vapor for disinfecting surgical instruments, equipment, and fixtures because it’s fast, effective, and non-toxic. The hospital “standards” temperature for this process is 180 degrees Fahrenheit.
VAPORSTRIKE emits vapor at 297 degrees Fahrenheit as it cleans, eliminating the need
for many chemical disinfectants. Cross contamination does not occur when using vapor because it
is not re-used. Additionally, reducing the use of chemicals from the cleaning regimen greatly
simplifies the MSD management program.
VAPORSTRIKE will enhance any sanitation and cleaning
regimen by providing 3-way cleansing action in a single, chemical free process. It cleans,
sanitizes, and deodorizes in one streak-free application, without leaving chemical residue that
could contaminate food, pollute the environment, or adversely affect the surfaces with which it
comes in contact. Its hot vapor literally penetrates the pores of the target being cleaned.
Contaminants, e.g., dirt, grime, residues, etc., are emulsified, and bacteria, viruses, mildew, mold
spores, dust mites, and other pathogens are destroyed on contact.
The VAPORSTRIKE system provides a single method for all cleaning
applications, and uses only tap water to enable the process. It can significantly reduce chemical
and cleaning consumable inventories. Labor time per-task is reduced due the superior cleaning
power of vapor and the increased efficiency afforded by ease of use. Labor costs become more
predictable as personnel expend less time and energy to achieve outstanding results.
The following is a partial list of application areas where the
VAPORSTRIKE system will provide faster and superior results because it
cleans, sanitizes and deodorizes in a single process.
