Cleaning and safety in the slaughtering sector: a guide to Best Practices

In the world of industrial slaughtering, cleaning and sanitizing tools and work environments are not just necessities but regulated obligations to ensure food safety and operator protection. Jarvis Products Corporation, with experience dating back to 1902, is a world leader in developing high-tech equipment for livestock slaughtering. With products renowned for their reliability and safety, the company also offers effective solutions for cleaning and sanitizing in the industry. At Jarvis Italia, as their local distributor, we are proud to bring these solutions to the Italian market.

Best practices for cleaning and sanitizing

Sanitizing livestock slaughtering tools must be done with specific products that ensure the elimination of bacteria and contaminants without damaging the equipment. The frequency of cleaning depends on the nature and intensity of use: at the end of each work shift, a thorough cleaning is indispensable, while lighter sanitization is recommended between uses during the workday.

Effective cleaning products

For cleaning slaughtering equipment, it is essential to choose approved and tested detergents and disinfectants. Solutions based on sodium hypochlorite or ethyl alcohol are widely used for their effectiveness against a wide range of microbes. Following the manufacturers’ guidelines is crucial to avoid equipment damage and ensure effective sanitization.

Techniques to avoid cross-contamination

Cross-contamination can be prevented by following strict sanitization protocols and organizing the workspace so that clean equipment never comes into contact with those still to be sanitized. Using color coding for tools and work areas can help maintain order and safety.

Safety in slaughtering

Operator safety is a top priority. All tools and equipment must be kept in perfect condition and sanitized regularly to prevent injuries and ensure a safe work environment. Compliance with safety regulations and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are indispensable.

Innovations in sanitation: the CV-1 / SR-1 system by Jarvis Italia

In the field of industrial sanitation, Jarvis Italia stands out with advanced technological solutions such as the steam sanitization and marrow aspiration system models CV-1 and SR-1. These tools represent excellence in terms of efficiency and adaptability to different production needs in slaughterhouses.

Steam sanitization tool model CV-1

The CV-1 model is specifically designed for carcass sanitization using steam. The use of steam as a sanitizing agent is known for its ability to significantly reduce bacterial load without the use of chemicals, thus ensuring an ecological and effective treatment. Steam sanitization not only improves food safety but also extends the shelf life of meats.

Marrow aspiration tool model SR-1

Marrow aspiration is a critical phase in carcass processing, and the SR-1 model by Jarvis Italia excels in this function. Available with or without steam options, this system uses a high-performance electromechanical pump for efficient and rapid aspiration. The containment tank and integrated separation filter are designed for easy maintenance and long operational life, reducing downtime and management costs.

Customizable configurations and high-level performance

The CV-1 / SR-1 system offers various configurations to suit the specific production needs of each slaughterhouse. With the possibility of adding a steam generator upon request, butchers can configure the system to maximize efficiency and effectiveness in the sanitization process.

The combination of extraordinary yield and performance quality makes the CV-1 / SR-1 system a preferred choice for those seeking not only compliance with food safety regulations but also optimal operability. Robust construction and reduced maintenance ensure that these systems are a long-term solution to daily challenges in slaughterhouses.

Integrating the CV-1 / SR-1 steam sanitization and marrow aspiration system into your production process can benefit you by reducing bacterial load and generally improving the safety and quality of processed meats.
