Dedos depenadores

All fingers absorb ambient humidity. Depending on the quality and the way they are produced, this can contribute strongly to the creation of niches favorable for bacterial fixation and the development of biofilm. After the slaughter, the cleaning, sanitizing and disinfection teams come into operation, which will be useless depending on the state of the fingers. Although plucking is fast, if the fingers are of questionable quality, only a few channels with Salmonella in the tunnel are enough for the entire line to become contaminated. The disaster is almost certain, since the territory is highly conducive to risks. pluckers

Slaughter plants

Slaughter plants should demand rigorous inspections of finger factories from the authorities. It would be an improvement for everyone to encourage transparency in the slaughter plant sector, which is where the origin of many of the problems experienced today resides.

Fingers are considered critical as they are a fundamental element in plucking

Recently, it was possible to develop the Antibacterial Formulation that becomes effective up to 99.99% against Salmonella, even with the benefit that the pieces continue to operate against bacteria, even when the fingers suffer wear. In relying on this advanced technology, bacteria have their days numbered and cross-contamination in screening as well. For poultry meat eaters it is positive.

Finger benefits built with noble materials & bactericidal protection
  1. They have a durability above the average, since they do not suffer decomposition in their content or effectiveness, even if it is at high temperatures and they are not leached for the environment.
  2. They protect the channels at all times while they are in operation, no matter to what extent they are worn.
  3. Due to the fact that the protection is in the entire piece, including its interior, the efficacy against Salmonella will last while it is in operation.
  4. The technical effect is to obtain a material that is clearly resistant to the proliferation of bacteria, significantly increasing the food safety of products originating from user slaughter plants.
  5. Fingers built from this formulation help control up to 99.99% level of cross contamination in plucking tunnels
  6. Therefore, they help to prevent the proliferation of bacteria in the manufacturing environment, especially if it is allied in its construction to noble materials
  7. It contributes to reducing the use of chemical products in the sanitation of food plants, especially in plucking tunnels.
  8. The Bactericidal Protection remains intact during injection, compression or transfer molding of the fingers.
  9. This means security of always obtaining perfect pieces in any circumstance.
  10. Fingers made of noble material and even with bactericidal protection substantially increase the degree of safety of meat products.
  11. This means a reduction in production costs with maximization of results.
  12. This protection can also be applied in the slaughter of pigs, food harvesting machines, cow milking machines, etc.
