Disinfectant testing

Disinfectant testing

To discuss your needs

Ensuring that factories are cleaned and disinfected effectively and in a timely manner is a fundamental prerequisite in the production of safe and wholesome foods.

As well as offering advice to the food industry on which cleaning solutions to use, we are regularly sought after to provide independent testing of the efficacy of the disinfectants and cleaning materials themselves, and the on the response to these of the surfaces they are cleaning.

Amongst our activities in this area:

  • We undertake disinfectant testing for the bactericidal and fungicidal assessment of disinfectants for use in the food industry and healthcare sector
  • We undertake a range of disinfectant tests for hand washing, hand rubbing and wipe-based products
  • We undertake a range of tests to assess the hygienic performance of food contact and non-food contact materials
  • We have developed tests for the assessment of antimicrobial food contact and non-food contact materials.
