Cleaning solutions for the meat industry
If you are active in the meat industry, you have a double challenge. Firstly, the strict hygiene standards, and secondly the heavy pollution. Dried meat, blood and fat, are a persistent pollution so you have to deal with foaming caused by the protein. Despite that you want to clean your manufacturing, packaging and transportation equipment fast and efficient. With UNIKON industrial washing machines you can.
UNIKON industrial washing machines are used by small and large companies in the meat industry, globally.
No less than 2000 E2 meat crates per hour!
Failproof high capacity sticker remover
Contract cleaning company for the meat industry, the Netherlands
What:
The removal of registration stickers from E2 meat crates.
Challenge:
- Removing the stickers from 2000 E2 crates per hour.
- Stickers can be placed on the two short sides at any random spot.
- Prevent an increased usage of water.
- Prevent failures as a result of sticker residue flying about.
- Low maintenance costs.
UNIKON solution:
A double track machine to spray off the stickers during the pre-wash at a low pressure as a result of the combined functioning of the number of nozzles, quantity of water and setting.
As the sticker remains are discharged via a drum filter, the maintenance of the pumps is relatively low. If we were to remove the stickers in the traditional way, using a high pressure milling cutter, the usage of clean water would be extremely high, as well as the maintenance costs. Cleaning the machine would take a lot of time due to sprayed off sticker residue left behind.

All-accepting unique transport system
Market leader in Ardennes ham, Belgium

NEW – UNIKON deboning glove washing machine
In recent years requests have come out of the market for a glove washing machine, and in response Unikon has developed such a machine.
