How UVZone Supports Food Processing

Audit Readiness

UVZone supports HACCP and GMP compliance by controlling microbial hazards at critical entry and transition zones. Helps facilities demonstrate verifiable preventive controls during safety audits.

Hygiene Compliance

UVZone reinforces employee adherence to hygiene protocols, integrating seamlessly into existing traffic control and PPE donning areas.

High Efficacy, Low-Maintenance

UVZone provides consistent, dry microbial control in 6–10 seconds—eliminating the mess, moisture, and upkeep of footbaths, chemical mats, and other higher maintenance alternatives.

UVZone provides proven defense against the top pathogens behind the majority of food recalls, safeguarding product integrity and brand reputation.

Strategic Installation Points for Maximum Protection

Raw Material Receiving Areas

Prevent contamination from delivery personnel and equipment entering from loading docks. Critical for facilities processing raw meat, poultry, or produce.

Production Floor Entrances

Create a sanitary barrier between non-production areas (offices, break rooms, restrooms) and food contact zones. Essential for all food manufacturing operations.

Allergen-Controlled Areas

Prevent cross-contact of allergens on footwear when transitioning between production lines. Critical for facilities with multiple allergen profiles.

Ready-to-Eat (RTE) Production Zones

Supports maximum protection for RTE products. Listeria control is critical in these high-risk areas.

Packaging and Finished Goods Areas

Lower the risk of last-minute contamination before distribution. Lower the risk of costly recalls due to post-processing contamination.

Quality Control Laboratories

Maintain laboratory integrity by reducing environmental contamination that could compromise test results and product release decisions.

Time to Results

Challenge

Lone Star Dairy Products, processing over 2 million pounds of milk daily, needed to improve hygiene compliance at critical transition zones to maintain product safety and quality.

Solution

In late 2020, Lone Star Dairy adopted UVZone technology, strategically placing Shoe Stations at hygiene transition zones. The 8-second treatment cycle allowed staff to simultaneously sanitize hands and adjust protective gear.

Results

  • Hygiene compliance increased from 56% (January 2021) to 96% (June 2021)
  • 40% overall increase in compliance over 6-month period
  • When station was temporarily removed in March, compliance dropped from 78% to 74%, demonstrating direct impact

"We have been utilizing UVZone Shoe Sanitizing Technology since October 2020. The dairy industry is highly regulated. This technology has helped us to achieve proactive clean in our facility. We have been quite pleased with our audit results as well as the support we have received from the PathO3Gen Solutions team."
