We
recently came to the rescue of a local poultry supplier that had been searching
(unsuccessfully) for an efficient poultry sanitiser to combat bacteria, especially
Campylobacter, on their freshly processed poultry.
Campylobacter
is the most common cause of food poisoning in the UK and it’s therefore of the
utmost importance to deal with its presence in the food chain.
We’re
always keen to rise to a challenge here at L and G and this was no exception.
We got to work on the design and fabrication of a sanitising system that was capable
of maintaining the constant, high temperature required to combat the bacteria,
as selected by the client. The process involves hot water to sanitize the bird that is kept at a very high, consistent temperature (within 0.5ยบ of selection) that
the bacteria are unable to withstand.
There
is a call by the food industry and supermarkets for this practice to become
industry standard, so at L and G Engineering we’re extremely proud to be at the
forefront of developing this finely tuned process.
