Maximum hygiene level
without using peroxide
Sophisticated sterilisation system for future-proof dairies
Respecting the environment, more ecology in food production,
wider range of natural products, avoiding chemical additives
– the consumers‘ list of requirements is extensive and could
be extended. Moreover trade has demanded extremely long
shelf lives for their products – and also for highly sensitive
products of the dairy and food industry – for a long time. Such long shelf
lives can only be achieved if the products are filled at a guaranteed high
hygiene level and if procedures are used which reliably sterilise the packing
materials (cup, bucket, lid and film) during the filling process.
GRUNWALD design engineers have been aware of these requirements
for a long time as the development of dosing and filling technology has
always been of great significance. Therefore a reliably high product safety
and the adherence to statutory hygiene regulations are one of the most
important issues at GRUNWALD for the development of new machines.
Ultraclean technology for higher demands
The mechanical engineering company from the Allgäu set new standards
with regard to hygiene with the certified and peroxide-free sterilisation
procedure developed 4 years ago. This ultraclean concept meets all requirements
for observing maximum hygiene levels in the production of
dairies and the food industry. Up-to-date machine technology guarantees

a reliably higher product safety and combines maximum possible
flexibility with maximum performance and reduction of running costs on
the basis of maximum hygiene standard at the same time. The hygiene
concept developed does not use peroxide and therefore respects above
all the health of the machine operators to a large extent.
The biggest advantage of this guaranteed reliable and certified
sterilisation system is not using any chemicals which means it is free
of peroxide and does not have any impacts on the environment and
personnel. In addition the issue with the overdosing of chemicals has
been solved! The pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation was
tested by several independent German institutes and they also confirmed
its effectiveness. They certified that this UV(C) sterilisation was
an ultra-modern and efficient alternative sterilisation procedure which
presents no health hazards and which gives reliable service without using
peroxide and guarantees maximum sterilisation rates.
Ultraclean sterilisation for cups and buckets
The pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation rate for cup filling
machines was well tried and tested over the past few years. It was developed
further and it can also be used on rotary-type and inline bucket fillers
for handling buckets up to 20 litres. A sterilisation rate of at least LOG4
is guaranteed for buckets from 1 to 10 litres. In addition this procedure
can be generally applied for all standard cups and lids used by the food
industry.
Peroxide-free machines
since 2019
The advantages predominate and Grunwald is convinced that basically
there is only one sterilisation system which can be thoroughly recommended:
the pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation. The number
of customers who made the decision for this ultramodern and efficient
sterilisation system which presents no health hazard and who have
used this successfully for a long time increases continuously. The reason
for this is not only due to the fact that Grunwald has manufactured their
cup and bucket filling machines exclusively with this peroxide-free hygiene
concept confidently since January 2019 but that both machine supplier
and customer consider the pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation
system to be THE trendsetting technology of the future.
