Spray zone (near the process)

Spray zone (near the process)

The splash zone is still very close to the production process (therefore: close to production). Drops or splashes of food can get back into the manufacturing process and cause contamination. For this reason, these engines also continue to be subject to a strict hygiene plan for cleaning, depending on the products manufactured. Depending on the production and manufacturing requirements, there may of course be variations and differences here from product to product.
