DEL Ozone Announces the Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ Program
DEL Ozone, the technology leader for ozone food safety systems, announces the Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ program to support exceptional food companies that demonstrate commitment to top quality food products and sustainable practices.
Online, April 17, 2012 (Newswire.com) - DEL Ozone announces the Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ program in support of food producers who provide high quality food using sustainable processing practices. Every food processor strives to develop and implement a plan to make fresh, safe foods available to their customers, but some go beyond that to incorporate sustainable processing methods that are increasingly important to consumers.
The Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ program will enable producers to communicate directly with consumers about their sustainable processing practices, while simultaneously addressing consumers' growing concerns about food safety. Since the environment and food safety are both high priorities among consumers, the Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ label will help progressive producers stand out to attract more consumer interest.
Participating producers who implement ozone sanitation practices will be able to print the Safe Sustainable Sanitation™ logo on their packaging. DEL Ozone will promote the program in venues where consumers will see it to establish and reinforce the message about the distinctive producers in the program.

When producers incorporate ozone sanitation, they can improve the quality of foods to the consumer while saving on water, energy and chemicals. Ozone food sanitation is an FDA/USDA approved method that quickly and effectively kills all known food pathogens, including the common microbes Salmonella, Listeria, Campylobacter, E. Coli, Norovirus, Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Aspergillus, Adenovirus, and Staphylococcus.
In addition, ozone-processed foods retain the full organoleptic qualities (taste, texture, smell, color) of the fresh product without potentially harmful residuals. There are no byproducts of ozone sanitation that need to be disposed or chemically altered, since ozone decomposes into ordinary oxygen, and both energy inputs and chemicals can be reduced.
