19fbtechreview.comMAY 2024The food and beverage market was plagued with antiquated cleaning techniques and ready for new cleaning solutions. This included heavy manual cleaning of production lines and food conveyors with spray bottles, scraping tools, and rags. By providing the industry with unique, innovative cleaning and sanitizing equipment that reduces labor and drastically cuts cleaning times, we yield immediate returns in terms of cost savings and mitigate the long-term risks associated with product contaminationFor example, a large-scale producer of baked bread was looking for ways to reduce labor costs and production downtime for their spiral cooling conveyor belts at its facility in Maine, USA. Maintaining high cleaning standards for their spiral cooler conveyor belts was a slow, costly process. Allocating 48 hours of labor time a week and cleaning small sections of each belt at a time was physically debilitating. The client scheduled a free onsite consultation and demonstration with a Goodway Sanitation Specialist to identify the best solution. He visited the facility and demonstrated the PureBelt Modular System conveyor belt cleaner and the GVC-18000 dry steam cleaner.Implementing the PureBelt Modular System on their spiral cooling conveyor belts reduced the hours needed for cleaning by more than 99 percent. "When we use the Goodway PureBelt Modular System, we can clean the conveyors on all three spiral coolers in just one day using only four person-hours from set up to take down. That is saving a lot of time and labor costs. However, you also save many hours on the framework by using the steam cleaner. Earlier, we did it by hand, and it never came out 100 percent clean. With the Goodway GVC-18000 dry-steam cleaner, you can clean the framework, so it looks brand new and 100 percent clean," says John Lamontagne, the Aramark/Operations Manager FLM/Facility Services at Bakery Facility in Lewiston, Maine.Unlike competitors, Goodway provides a consultative approach that garners a deeper understanding of a facility's sanitation team's pain points and daily challenges. A comprehensive process that enables it to deliver tailored solutions and expected results. By employing its sanitation specialists, it cultivates lasting partnerships through dedicated expertise, training, and support. Currently, Goodway is tackling many global cleaning and sanitation challenges within the industry. A notable one is the gradual shift from chemical cleaning processes to viable alternatives. Over the last decade, it has devoted efforts to perfecting the generation of super dry vapor steam. This process naturally sanitizes production surfaces with high heat from "dry" superheated steam, instantly cutting through soils and grease and effectively eliminating unwanted organisms. This breakthrough is complemented by cutting-edge automated systems designed to clean and sanitize production lines, resulting in significant time and cost savings. The imminent availability of chemical-free and highly automated systems from Goodway is an exciting development.Delivering cutting-edge solutions tailored to the food and beverage industry, Goodway remains at the forefront of innovation, ensuring a clean and sanitized future for production environments.
