IMPROVE AIR QUALITY IN FOOD PROCESSING AREAS

Food production and processing facilities operate long hours with constant activity in preparation areas, chillers, packing zones and storage rooms. In these environments, odours, moisture and airborne contaminants can build up quickly and may affect how fresh and well managed an area feels, even when hygiene standards are high.

Airborne microorganisms and odour causing compounds can circulate through the working environment and settle onto equipment, structures and building fabric. Fragrances and masking agents only cover the problem for a short time and do not address the source within the air itself.

DAX Airscience supplies AIRsteril systems that treat the air continuously, reducing airborne microorganisms and breaking down odour causing compounds. This helps maintain a fresher atmosphere in food processing areas and supports a cleaner smelling environment for staff, auditors and customers who visit the site.

Independent testing in food related environments has shown that AIRsteril technology can significantly reduce levels of airborne microorganisms associated with spoilage, providing valuable support to existing hygiene and quality procedures.

HOW OUR SYSTEMS WORK

AIRsteril systems used by DAX Airscience draw contaminated air into an enclosed internal chamber where it is exposed to germicidal ultraviolet energy and advanced oxidation. The design of the internal baffle system ensures that air spends sufficient time in the treatment chamber for the process to be effective. Inside this chamber airborne microorganisms are destroyed and odour causing volatile organic compounds are broken down before treated air is released back into the area.

Independent laboratory and field testing, including studies by ALS and other accredited organisations, has shown that AIRsteril technology can significantly reduce levels of airborne microorganisms associated with spoilage in food environments. The systems are designed for use in occupied areas and can operate continuously alongside normal production, supporting existing cleaning and hygiene regimes without adding chemical residues or requiring downtime.

OUR GROUNDBREAKING TECHNOLOGY

DAX Airscience provides AIRsteril units suitable for a wide range of food industry applications, from preparation rooms and chill stores to packing areas and ancillary spaces. By improving air quality and reducing odour causing compounds, the systems help create a fresher working environment and can reduce the need for strong fragrances or odour masking products.

Our technology can be applied at multiple points in the process, from intake and processing areas through to storage and dispatch, supporting consistent environmental conditions across the site. Units are designed for low energy consumption and minimal maintenance, and integrate alongside existing ventilation and hygiene measures without disrupting everyday operations.
