Using Clear Vinyl Tarps to Quarantine Allergen free Areas in a Commercial Bakery
Airborne Dust Control with Clear Vinyl Tarps
In a commercial bakery, being gluten-free is not just about labeling the product. In order for an allergen free product to remain truly uncontaminated, it must be handled in a specific way – meaning you must take care to prevent cross contamination. With airborne flour and heavy foot traffic, there are many ways that food can be compromised as a gluten-free item. Clear vinyl tarps are a great way to manage and segregate the food you are preparing to ensure that your food can remain safe from allergens.
Visibility Without Compromising Food Safety
Another benefit to clear vinyl beyond food safety is visibility. Yes, you could get a matte, or treated vinyl of whatever color, but the clear vinyl allowed for supervision of foods and oversight of the process. This ensures the highest possible quality for your products without having to cross contamination zones. This is especially useful in busy bakeries where many processes are taking place at the same time.
