Safety is imperative across all businesses and industries, yet a lot of people would agree that it is even more important in certain sectors, with the food industry being one of these. Read on for three crucial tips.

Switch to natural cleaning solutions

When hiring a commercial kitchen cleaning company, you may wish to ask whether they have any natural cleaning services available. Some people feel uncomfortable using products that have a lot of chemicals in them, which may lurch on the surface. When possible, a quality commercial kitchen cleaning company will use natural substances to clean your kitchen. 

You can actually buy natural all-purpose cleaners. These are more than effective when it comes to your usual cleaning routine. Use them on counters, tables and cabinets. If you have a granite countertop you should avoid using anything acidic, such as vinegar or lemon, as this can wear down the stone and erode the finish. You may also want to make your own alcohol-based cleaning solution. This is effective when used now and again. 

When it comes to floor cleaning it all depends on the type of floor you have in place. A lot of commercial kitchens have tile and grout flooring. If this applies to you, you could try sprinkling the floor with baking soda and then spraying it with hydrogen peroxide. Leave this for several minutes before you scrub away the residue and wipe it off. There is an increasing number of natural products available on the market nowadays, so bear this in mind when shopping. 

Make the most of technology

Technology has advanced rapidly, and there are now amazing digital food safety solutions available, so make the most of them!

These solutions will incorporate monitoring sensors, helping you determine the temperature of food, as well as helping you monitor all of your food storage. You will have complete control over your business, which can automate compliance so costs, stress, and time are reduced. 

This is the best way of ensuring all of your food safety commitments are adhered to and everything runs smoothly.

Opt for bespoke catering equipment installation

Catering equipment encompasses a vast selection of products. Individuals can choose between sinks, stainless steel tables, catering trolleys, cupboards, shelves, utensils, containers, steam cleaners, steam cleaner accessories, and pre-rinse units. There are then different versions of each product.

To ensure complete safety, choose a service that encompasses everything from the initial design to the installation to the aftercare. The best companies will also provide a bespoke service in order to ensure customers are completely satisfied and that equipment is generated in relation to their site specifically. 

If businesses choose to go down the bespoke route, the process will begin with a consultation. Trained and experienced technicians then visit the client’s site in order to get a better understanding of dimensions, layout, what equipment would be best, and the best method of installation. All decisions will be made with the utmost hygiene in mind. 

In fact, all stainless steel catering equipment should be designed and manufactured so that it abides by the current health and safety regulations and legislation in the UK and Europe.
