Best Sanitizers help food processors put best (clean) foot forward

The HACCP SmartStep and HACCP Defender footwear sanitizing systems use an atomized mist of Alpet D2 Surface Sanitizer to saturate employee footwear soles before they enter a critical control area.

Each employee gets a fresh application of Alpet D2 unlike a traditional foot bath which becomes less effective with each use, requires constant monitoring, and adds unwanted moisture to the processing environment, said the firm.

The 58% isopropyl alcohol/quaternary formulation is a ready-to-use (RTU), no-rinse sanitizer, and is safe for use on food contact surfaces.

Best Sanitizers claims Alpet D2 is a proven rubber boot and glove sanitizer, is NSF registered, Kosher certified and kills 99.999% of tested bacteria, including E.coli, Listeria and Salmonella.

The walk-through design of the HACCP Defender is for high-traffic areas, while the HACCP SmartStep (10”x21.5”x 17”) can be placed in multiple places to increase protection and reduce risk of cross-contamination.

Ryan Witt, Best Sanitizers’ VP of sales and marketing, said the systems are very versatile.

“The HACCP SmartStep and HACCP Defender provide processors with an effective system in the fight against cross-contamination from footwear​,” he said.
