Hygiene Solutions

From Farm to Fork — Control Pathogens and Protect Crops

Biosan peracetic acid solutions deliver proven efficacy for produce processing and agricultural applications. From sanitizing fruits and vegetables to controlling soil-borne and foliar diseases, our products help reduce microbial contamination and improve food safety while supporting crop health. 

Biosan’s peracetic acid-based solutions deliver uncompromising compliance and performance.

  • FDA-Accepted sanitizers safeguard food safety by controlling microbes during produce processing and post-harvest handling, meeting strict 21 CFR requirements.
  • EPA-Registered sanitizers protect food-contact equipment, irrigation systems, and greenhouse environments, ensuring compliance with EPA standards and 40 CFR §180.940.

Together, these solutions help prevent contamination, reduce food-borne illnesses, and promote healthier crops, giving your operation a competitive edge in safety and sustainability.

FDA-Accepted Antimicrobial Solutions

Food safety and crop hygiene are critical in today’s supply chain. Microbial contamination remains the leading threat to produce integrity. Peracetic acid (PAA) is among the most effective solutions for controlling microbial contamination. Biosan manufactures FDA-accepted peracetic acid products for use in federally inspected facilities to reduce contamination and cross-contamination of edible food products.

  • FCN: 2036 for meat, poultry, fruits, vegetables, and eggs.
  • Approved for online and offline reprocessing (OLR/OFLR).
  • Prevents food-borne illnesses such as Campylobacter, E. coli, and Salmonella.
  • Controls soil-borne and foliar diseases in crops.
  • Supports greenhouse hygiene and irrigation system sanitation.
  • Effective antimicrobial agent for flume washing and misting.
  • Helps reduce contamination and cross-contamination of edible food products.
  • Reduces spoilage organisms on raw foods, extending shelf life.

EPA-Registered Sanitizing Solutions for Agricultural Facilities & Packinghouses

Maintaining clean and sanitized surfaces is essential for preventing contamination during food processing and agricultural operations. EPA-registered peracetic acid sanitizers are ideal for circulation cleaning and sanitizing pre-cleaned, hard, non-porous food-contact surfaces and equipment, as well as irrigation systems, greenhouses, and packinghouses.

  • EPA-registered for food-contact and non-food-contact surfaces.
  • Ideal for circulation cleaning and sanitizing hard, non-porous surfaces.
  • Effective against Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli, and Salmonella enterica.
  • No-rinse, non-foaming formula for easy application.
  • Safe for discharge to land or surface irrigation.
  • Controls slime-forming bacteria and biofouling in cooling water systems.
