Ready-to-eat produce

Add microbial control where there may be no next step.

For produce sold ready to eat, pre-cut fruits and vegetables, and prepared food applications, there may be no further processing step to reduce microbial risk before consumption.

Clean Works provides an additional waterless decontamination step that can be incorporated into these environments to reduce foodborne pathogens and spoilage organisms while maintaining product quality.

Whether treating whole produce intended for direct consumption, pre-cut ingredients, or produce used in prepared foods, Clean Works adds another layer of microbial control without adding water to the process.
