Anyone who runs a food processing facility knows that biofilm isn’t just a nuisance; it’s a threat. It wedges itself into welds, clings to stainless steel, and shelters pathogens from even the strongest sanitizers. Day after day, teams clean, scrub, and sanitize, hoping to get ahead of the problem, only to see the same trouble spots return.
HydroTreat™ changes that story. Instead of treating the surface, it goes after the biofilm matrix itself. In laboratory studies using stainless steel coupons, the chemistry cut through the layers that bleach left behind. Microscopy showed it plainly, structures collapsing, microbes dying, and surfaces returning to the level of clean that food safety demands.
For operators, the change is more than scientific. It means fewer contamination scares, less downtime, and a more reliable sanitation cycle. Equipment stays cleaner longer, audits are easier to pass, and the whole operation gains a new level of confidence in its hygiene practices.
