While facility hygiene is a continuous priority in food processing environments, the start of the spring season provides an ideal opportunity for a more comprehensive review of sanitation protocols. It’s a great time to ensure every area—from production floors to employee spaces—meets the rigorous standards required for safe, efficient processing.
Sponges, Scouring Pads, Brushes and Wipers
From stainless-steel equipment to high‑use employee areas, durable cleaning tools are essential for maintaining sanitation standards. Our industrial-grade sponges, scouring pads, cleaning brushes and disposable wipers deliver the strength needed to remove tough residues while supporting lint‑free, efficient cleaning across your facility.
Floor Care
Clean, sanitized floors are critical to plant safety and regulatory compliance. We offer a full line of high‑performance floor‑care solutions—including Spic N Span Floor Cleaner with Bleach—designed to cut through buildup, remove soils, and help your production areas look and perform their best. Explore our full range of floor‑care chemicals here.
For daily wash‑down and sanitation routines, the right tools make all the difference. Squeegees help quickly move excess water off floors and equipment surfaces, reducing slip hazards and improving drying times. They’re built for durability in high‑moisture environments and easy to sanitize between uses.
Effective floor care also requires reliable mopping solutions. Our industrial mops, along with compatible mop buckets and pails, provide efficient cleaning for both production areas and employee spaces. Whether you need high‑absorbency materials, ergonomic designs, or color‑coding for allergen and cross‑contamination control, you’ll find dependable options to support your sanitation program.
Washdown
For heavier sanitation demands, wash‑down equipment plays a vital role in maintaining a safe and compliant environment. Durable wash‑down hoses built to withstand hot water and continuous use help ensure efficient cleaning throughout the plant. Pair them with adjustable nozzles to direct pressure where it’s needed most for effective rinsing and debris removal.
For facilities using foam cleaning as part of their sanitation protocol, an industrial foamer helps ensure consistent chemical coverage and improved surface contact time. This enhances cleaning efficiency and supports a more thorough sanitation process across equipment and hard‑to‑reach areas.
Air Deodorizers
After a long winter season, indoor air can become stagnant—especially in enclosed production or employee spaces. Disinfecting sprays like Lysol help reduce airborne bacteria while refreshing the environment. For facilities wanting branded scents or variety, our Prime Source deodorizers are available in nine options to help you maintain a clean, welcoming atmosphere throughout the plant.

Oven and Grill Cleaner
Food contact equipment such as grills, burners, and cook‑line surfaces accumulate grease and baked‑on residue that can increase fire risk and compromise food safety. Our oven and grill cleaners are engineered to break down tough buildup quickly, simplifying maintenance while supporting safer, more efficient production operations.
Laundry Detergent
High‑turnover items such as towels, uniforms and aprons require reliable laundering solutions to maintain hygiene standards. Our selection of industrial‑strength laundry detergents ensures your frequently used items stay clean, fresh, and ready for daily use throughout your facility.
Multipurpose and Sanitizing Wipes
For everything from routine touch‑point cleaning to quick response on minor spills, multipurpose towels and sanitizing wipes offer fast, effective performance. Their durability makes them suitable for both light-duty wipe-downs and more demanding sanitation needs across production and support areas.
Trash Cans and Bags
Effective waste management is a core part of plant hygiene. Our round drums and lids—available in seven capacities and eleven color options—help streamline disposal and support color‑coded sanitation programs. Pair them with our high‑quality can liners for a complete waste‑handling solution during and after your deep cleaning efforts.
ToteAll 2000 Poly Totes
Once cleaning is complete, organization becomes key. ToteAll color‑coded molded poly boxes provide sturdy, versatile storage for tools, components, ingredients, or sanitation supplies. These food-approved, heavy‑duty totes offer durable construction and multiple color options, making them ideal for improving workflow organization across your facility.
Insect Light Traps & Glue Board Replacement
Spring is also an ideal time to review your facility’s insect‑control program. In food processing environments, replacing glue boards and inspecting or upgrading insect light traps is essential for maintaining compliance and minimizing contamination risk. Gardner insect traps are widely used across industrial and food manufacturing settings for non‑chemical, 24‑hour insect monitoring and capture. Bunzl Processor Division offers a full range of Gardner solutions—including wall‑mounted, portable, and adhesive light traps—along with multiple replacement glue board sizes designed for various trap models. Refreshing these components during your spring-cleaning helps ensure optimal UV output, consistent insect capture, and better overall environmental control throughout your processing areas.
