Building sustainability
Delivering a more sustainable approach to hygiene
Some of the key sustainability benefits are:
- Reduced water consumption
eloclearTM simplifies the cleaning process through its dual cleaning and disinfecting capability. In food hygiene, it reduces the traditional five-step cleaning regime down to two steps, reducing water consumption and saving time. With just one rinse required, resultant wastewater is also significantly decreased.
- Reduced energy usage
eloclearTM is effective at an ambient temperature, removing the need for hot water cleaning and requiring less energy to produce. For chilled environments, the replacement of hot water means no more condensation or re-chilling after cleaning, further reducing energy costs.
- Less exposure to and use of harmful chemicals
Combined cleaning and disinfection replaces the need for two separate products. eloclearTM is made from cold water and salt using the process of electrolysis, so it’s completely sustainable.What’s more, as a non-hazardous chemical, it means a safer working environment for employees and reduced risk of chemical residues.
- A more sustainable supply chain
eloclearTM is manufactured in-situ at your facility, at the ready-to-use concentration. By replacing existing traditional chemicals this means a significant reduction in transportation across the chemical supply chain, decreasing associated pollution and transport costs. Additionally, in-situ production also eliminates single-use plastic packaging of these chemicals.
Supporting sustainability development goals (SDG)
Traditional techniques for cleaning and disinfecting surfaces such as floors, walls and equipment in food processing, manufacturing and packaging plants use large quantities of hot water. The hygiene processes at such facilities also tend to contain multiple steps that take up valuable operating time.
Goal 2: Zero hunger
Ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and production.
Goal 3: Good health and well-being
Substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and water pollution and contamination.
Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation
Improve water quality by reducing pollution, minimising release of hazardous chemicals and materials, and increasing recycling and safe reuse globally. Ozo will help to substantially increase water-use efficiency in food manufacturing.

Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production
Achieve the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources. Ozo will contribute to halving global food waste and reduce food losses along production and supply chains. Ozo will encourage companies, especially large and transnational companies, to adopt sustainable practices and integrate sustainability information into their reporting cycle.
