Sustainable Food Safety and Shelf Life Solutions
Revolutionising Farm-to-Table Safety
Pristify offers advanced sterilisation technologies to enhance animal and food safety from the farm to the table.
Extending Shelf Life
Our solutions extend product shelf life, reducing waste and maximising freshness.
Holistic Approach
We provide a comprehensive suite of sterilisation technologies for food production, storage, and distribution.
Evolution of Food Safety
1
Pre-1950s
Basic cleaning, salt preservation, and simple ventilation methods.
2
1950s-1990s
Chemical preservatives, early UV applications, and cold chain development.
3
2000s-Present
Advanced ionisation, photocatalytic oxidation, and smart monitoring systems.
Air Sterilisation Technologies
Photocatalytic Oxidation
Reduces ethylene gas, prevents mold, and airborne pathogens, extending shelf life during transport and in storage facilities.
DBD Ionisation
Effective in cold temperatures and high humidity, reducing VOCs, fungi and other pathogens in air and surfaces, extending shelf life in storage facilities.
UV-C Technology
Fast-acting, no chemical residue, HACCP compliant for conveyor systems and packaging lines.
Surface Sterilisation Technologies
Food Grade Antimicrobial Coating
Long-lasting, food-safe sterilisation for processing equipment and storage containers.
Advanced Hand Sanitiser
3-hour protection with food-grade safety for employee handling areas.
Implementation Strategy
Includes surface preparation, application protocol, and regular compliance checks.
Food Industry Chemical Solutions
Food-Grade Sanitizers
Common solutions include Quaternary Ammonium and Peracetic Acid. Limitations include regular reapplication and chemical storage.
Ozone Treatment
Used for water treatment and surface sanitisation. Requires concentration control and safety monitoring.
Safety & Compliance
Regulatory demands. Consider chemical purchase and storage costs.
