Who are ALZ Agro?

ALZ Agro are a group of companies who specialise in bringing innovative solutions to the agro-industrial sectors. They have a number of clients who export fresh produce and are working with them to review and improve their processes. As part of the review ALZ Agro are exploring test methods for measuring disinfection in produce wash water.

How is Kemio Disinfection supporting ALZ Agro?

ALZ Agro are using Kemio to measure chlorine dioxide and PAA in wash water. Fresh produce is washed with sanitiser to remove dirt, pesticide residues, and microorganisms responsible for quality loss and decay. It is critical to monitor the wash water to ensure the correct amount of sanitiser is present.

Kemio is a multiparameter testing platform making it ideal for users, such as ALZ Agro, who need to measure more than one disinfection type.

What are the benefits of using Kemio for monitoring disinfection?

With readings to two decimal places, Kemio provides results of laboratory-grade accuracy. Kemio has been independently verified as the best method for testing produce wash water providing rapid and accurate test results.
