Bacteria outbreaks can cause major headaches for food manufacturers and quality control teams. Hygiene Technologies has introduced Terminex to make life easier and keep your production safe.
Recently, a food manufacturer faced a tough challenge. Routine hygiene checks showed pathogens in an external area far from the main production zone. The usual sanitiser wasn’t working, and the hits kept coming. After reviewing the situation, the team realised the wet weather had created the perfect environment for Listeria.
Finding a fast and effective solution was critical. Luckily, a Hygiene Tech representative recommended Terminex. The team tried it—and the results were immediate. Everything was eliminated, and the problem hasn’t returned.
Why Terminex Works
Biofilms and bacterial slimes are tough. They form when micro-organisms attach to a thin layer of sugars and fatty acids, creating a safe haven that resists most sanitisers. Common options like Sodium Hypochlorite and QAC barely touch them. Traditionally, removing biofilms required harsh methods like super-heated steam or high-strength hydrogen peroxide.
Terminex changes that. It breaks down the bonds that hold biofilms together and kills the micro-organisms inside. It’s a broad-spectrum sanitiser that works across a wide pH and temperature range and stays active even in the presence of organic material.
How to Use Terminex
Terminex is easy to apply with a pump-up sprayer or trigger bottle.
Spray it on, let it work, then rinse. It’s perfect for:
- Soaking food machinery components
- Removing biofilms
- Breaking the contamination cycle
- Mid-shift disinfecting
- Post-cleaning sanitising
- Small-scale CIP sanitising
Terminex is NZFSA Approved (for export) and Asure Quality Approved (for dairy). Independent tests confirm its antimicrobial effectiveness.
