Mold
Challenges
Mold is a multicellular fungus and is considered a microbe. It causes biodegradation of natural materials, which spoils food and damages property. Mold can also cause diseases in animals and humans, from allergenic sensitivity to mold spores, growth of pathogenic molds within the body or from inhaling the toxic compounds produced by molds. There are thousands of known species of mold and they are always present in the air. Mold thrives in temperate, moist environments and can grow on inorganic materials if the surface is dirty.
Application areas
Mold is a difficult challenge when it comes to quality and lifespan of products in food and beverage production as well as in logistics centers and warehouses. It is also a serious threat to the health of people working in those environments.
Buildings with uncleaned ventilation ducts can develop problems with mold growth. Mold can also grow in cellars and attics that are not properly drained or ventilated. In both cases, it damages the health of the people spending time in those environments.
Maintaining an environment where there is zero mold growth might not be possible in all situations. For further risk reduction, a good air filtration will reduce the mold spores in the air thereby reducing the risk of spread of mold.
Solutions
The FS 70 Food Grade air cleaners are specially developed in close cooperation with the food and beverage industry for optimal compliance towards hygienic standards. Powerful, energy-efficient, and quiet, they ensure product quality and lifespan while creating a healthy work environment. Corrosion-resistant stainless steel, sealed chassis, surfaces without cavities, and rounded edges for easy cleaning. Particles are captured using multi-stage filters placed directly inside the grid to prevent buildup inside the unit before cleaned air is circulated.
FS 30 Standard and FS 70 Standard are well equipped to lower the levels of mold spores, pollen and other contaminants in the air in shared spaces like offices and schools. FS 30 Standard has a small footprint and is suitable for smaller spaces. FS 70 Standard is recommended for larger spaces. Both have very low sound levels to not disturb concentration. Both short- and long term health and productivity will be improved while absence drops. The premises will be more comfortable, clean, and attractive.
