vest in other technologies in order to avoid the often enormous
contamination? Isn’t it high time to realise that disinfection with
peroxide is a dead-end technology and that it is time to stop it
and choose a healthy, acceptable alternative for ultramodern
and economic disinfection proceedings?
UV(C) sterilisation is the alternative
With the hygienic solution developed, Grunwald set new standards
in terms of hygiene several years ago and has already offered
an alternative for the sterilisation of all packaging materials
which is completely safe to use and does not represent any
health threat. The pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation
used verifiably guarantees a sterilisation rate of at least
LOG 4 for cups, buckets, lids and seal lids.
The sterilisation system works without the use of peroxide –
guaranteed and reliable. It has been demonstrably tested by
several, independent German institutes. They confirmed that
“it works completely without chemicals and it does not have
any impact on the environment and staff”. Thus also the prob-

lem with the overdosage of chemicals has been solved when
using pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation! Another
advantage is that this process can be used for all standard cups
and buckets of the food industry.
The new machine generation
Another milestone of the development of filling machines is
the bucket filler GRUNWALD FLEXLINER XL UC. In the design
of this inline bucket filler, the pulsed light high-performance
UV(C) sterilisation system, which has already been well-proven
on Grunwald cup fillers, was further developed. The result was
a patented procedure which also guarantees a sterilisation rate
of at least LOG 4 for buckets (up to 10 litres). This ultraclean
version as well as UV(C) packaging material sterilisation is also
available for rotary-type bucket fillers
So far this ultramodern and efficient sterilisation system was
only considered to be a supplement to the peroxide sterilisation.
Now it is time for rethinking. In the current corona pandemic the
UV(C) technology was also recognised to be effective for other
sectors and is now used as an effective, disinfecting method for
keeping rooms clean and for rapid disinfection of the air (e.g. in
schools and restaurants) for the protection and thus against the
risk of infection with Covid 19 viruses.
Both with customers who have successfully been using this
innovation for a long time GRUNWALD are convinced that the
pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation is the trendsetting
technology of the future. It is a safe alternative to the
use of peroxide and represents no health hazard. Today this
pulsed light high-performance UV(C) sterilisation system is
used as a technical standard for all cup and bucket filling systems
when a higher hygiene level is required.
