What is the difference between cleaning and sanitising:
Cleaning : Removal of visible contamination such as food waste, dirt and grease from a surface.
Sanitising : Reduces harmful bacteria from surfaces and equipment.
Top Tip – Remember to clean first then sanitise, as there is no point sanitising a surface that is not clean. Otherwise this will result in a food source being available, and bacteria able to multiply quickly.
Importance of Sanitising.
- Sanitising reduces the amount of harmful bacteria from surfaces and equipment.
- Sanitation may be achieved by heat such as machine dishwashing or chemicals with surface sanitation using a sanitising chemical product.
- You need to sanitise any surface that come in contact with hands, liquids or food products.
