Shoe covers have long been relied upon as a top choice for protecting footwear in dry environment food processing facilities. While they may seem like a quick and effective solution for safeguarding Ready-to-Eat (RTE) products from harmful pathogens on employees' shoes, the reality is that shoe covers don't actually remove pathogens from footwear.
Meritech's CleanTech® EVO with Sole Clean Low Moisture Sanitizing Pan is the best option for removing harmful pathogens from both footwear and hands in dry production environments at an affordable cost.
An RTE food processing facility was having employees wear shoe covers when on the production floor. However, the Quality Assurance Manager was worried about employees needing to touch their dirty shoes when applying and removing shoe covers, as well as the excessive cost of the shoe covers. The Quality Assurance Manager switch to CleanTech® EVO Stations with Sole Clean enhancements. After the replacing the shoe covers and the handwashing sinks with (2) EVO Three with Sole Clean Stations, the concerns that the QA Manager had about their program were resolved. The employees were removing more than 99.9% of pathogens from their hands and footwear. The RTE food processing facility saw savings of $66,000 annually, which totaled a savings of $199,000 over the course of three years by upgrading to CleanTech® EVO Stations.
