Retail Meat & Deli Department
In today’s meat and deli departments they not only carry cut beef, pork, veal, lamb and poultry but further processed meats prepared on site. Retail meats and deli departments have conformed to today’s quick pace shoppers who are looking for items that are quick to fix. Meat and deli departments have taken the model for meat processors or prepare ready to cook foods. Now we have meat and deli departments using cut produce for a complete balanced ready to cook meals.
Meat and deli departments are providing for the consumers with fresh meals that fit one, two or several people at one setting. It is important when preparing single or multiple ingredients is important to control the possibility for pathogen contamination or cross contamination from using other protein and vegetable. This has been a problem for meat processors who process for foodservice needs.

Aqua Few Acidic AC and Alkaline AL electrolyzed water applications can benefit meat and deli departments control for pathogen and cross contamination from happening. Aqua Few AC water kills pathogens on beef, pork, poultry and vegetables. AC water has 99.9% reduction for E’ coli 0157 H7, salmonella, listeria and other known pathogens that are detrimental on meats. Can be used in cutting rooms, full service counters as well as well as meat surfaces in packages. Extends product life, improving customer satisfaction.
Complete Processing Sanitation
Using Aqua Few AC water and AL water will sanitize and disinfect cutting rooms, deli production areas, meat case, full service case and processing equipment. Aqua Few AL water is a degreaser and cleaner for floors, walls, cutting surfaces, roasters, saws, knives, wrapping areas, slicers and any other equipment used. Aqua Few AC water is a final disinfectant on hard surface and all processing equipment used for processing meat and deli departments. AC water can be used at room temperature. Below is the two different waters and how the applications should be used for sanitize and disinfectant.
Alkaline water pH 10 + 11.5, ORP -600. (Oxygen Reduction Potential)
• Use AQuaFew AL water at a temperature of 120 degrees to 160 degrees F (49 to 71 degrees C) for general cleaning and degreasing applications. Use AquaFew AL water at a temperature of 180 degrees to 212 degrees F (82 to 100 degrees C) as an extreme degreaser and cleaner for heavily soiled equipment and service areas. Good for drain maintenance.
Acidic (AC) Water pH 2.4 to 2.6, ORP +1100. (Oxygen Reduction Potential)
• Use Aqua Few AC as a hard surface sanitizer either at room temperature for general sanitizing applications. Works in drains after Aqua Few AL as a final disinfectant. Kills listeria, Ecoli 0157 and salmonella. Many other pathogens and fungus. Use Aqua Few AC water at a temperature of 120 degrees to 160 degrees F (49 to 71 degrees C) for general cleaning and disinfecting. Use Aqua Few AC water at a temperature of 180 degrees to 212 degrees F (82 to 100 degrees C) as an extreme for final drain rinse.
Aqua Few electrolyzed water through electrolysis creates waters with a lesser surface tension. This helps the water penetrate organic proteins which could carry pathogens.
Smaller Clusters Due to Electrolysis
*Electrolysis is a simple, safe, consistent and user-friendly process to formulate an advanced-form of functional water.
Through the process of electrolysis, original tap water clusters that were made up of 11~13 water molecules have been restructured into smaller clusters made up of 5~6 water molecules. This fact is verified with the use of a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance device or a Raman Spectroscopic Meter.

Retail Produce Departments
There has been recalls over the last 10 years for leafy vegetables, tomatoes carrots, onions etc. These recalls have been reported through the media and put scares in peoples mind about how safe our food is. Most of the contamination comes from ground water used for irrigation while produce is maturing through its natural growing cycle. Some bacteria’s can be carried through cooling towers or unclean equipment used in the processing. A lot of positive steps have been put into place during the process of value added vegetable packaging. Distribution channels can create contamination due to temperature fluctuations during shipments and cross docks. Today this has vastly improved.

The other area of concern for retail produce department is product shrink. They have taken steps for improvement but it is still a concern for the bottom line. Water baths help and misting refrigerated display case will help.
Aqua Few acidic (AC) and alkaline AL water application can significantly benefit a stores produce department. Our application can be applied for reduction of pathogens, some fungus and overall better quality in display cabinets. Using our Al water as a pre rinse removes any organic that comes in on the fruits and vegetables. Our AC water has 99.9% reduction on food borne bacteria. We can be used in water and misting applications as well. Deterioration on leafy vegetables can be reduced by killing surface bacteria. Through misting systems our AC maintains the reduction of bacteria. The other benefit using Aqua Few waters is rehydration through the cells in fruits and vegetables. Dehydration causes brown leaf, color, shrinkage, and product quality.
We eliminate human contamination as well. People who have viruses from colds, flu, etc touch a lot of fruits and vegetables. Cross contaminating through transferring these pathogens and viruses onto the produce that is in the display case. Through misting systems using our AC water we kill these bacteria’s on the surface of the fruits and vegetables. Using our application we increase fresh life even after consumer buys and takes home.
Our application is safe and easy to use. Turn button approach to safer, cleaner and healthier environmental conditions. Our waters can be used for department clean up. Below is how to use for complete non chemical maintenance for sinks, floors, walls, cutting boards, handling equipment and display case cleanup. Cost savings by reducing the time it takes cleaning up the work areas.
