Cleaning Tool Maintenance

To function optimally throughout their lifecycle, Vikan cleaning tools must be cleaned and maintained properly. Find out how to make the most of your Vikan products.

The correct maintenance of cleaning tools and utensils is essential for compliance and for minimising the critical risks of microbial, chemical, allergen, and foreign body cross-contamination in your facility.

This hub guides you through establishing a comprehensive, audit-ready tool maintenance program, going beyond simple cleaning to cover all aspects of maintenance that are required by HACCP prerequisite programs and GFSI schemes like BRCGS and FSSC 22000.

Learn how to develop validated decontamination methods and how to implement robust protocols for tool cleaning verification, inspection and replacement. We also discuss how to optimise safe, hygienic storage of your equipment to ensure they remain a proactive defence, rather than a contamination risk.
