Food Safety Act
The introduction of the Food and Safety Act in 1990 and the Food Hygiene Legislation in 2006 have placed the responsibility for due diligence in food handling and hygiene in the hands of the food production industry. In order to comply with these legislations there has been greater emphasis put on hygiene awareness and contamination control.
If a business handling food was found to be in breach of these acts and regulations this would lead to severe fines that would not only damage the profitability of the business in question, but also their reputation.

What our deep cleaning team do
Our team of professionals will clean the entire area including the walls, ceilings, floors, lights and all equipment and fittings. Where possible we will dismantle your equipment, clean and sanitise it and then one of our trained operatives will re-assemble it. The proper cleaning of expensive equipment is also very important for prolonging its lifespan.
As part of our deep clean we will also make sure that any cooking equipment such as fryers, ovens, brat pans, convection ovens and boilers are cleaned thoroughly. This process removes any fat deposits and burnt on carbon to ensure any potentially harmful bacteria are eliminated. We also ensure all canopies and filters are degreased from top to bottom, because when grease laden deposits accumulate over time in extract ventilation systems it can present an increased fire hazard.
