Tecpro Australia Vehicle Disinfection Systems

Managers of farms, food manufacturing plants and processing plants will be acutely aware of the importance of keeping bacteria, disease, pests and other contaminants out of their property. But the vehicles that travel between farms and plants could be the weak link in biosecurity.

Outbreaks of pests and diseases in livestock or food processing plants can quickly spread to other sites, despite the meticulous care taken by employees and management alike. When officials trace the origins of the outbreak, the common denominator transferring the pathogen between each site is frequently the trucks and other vehicles that enter and leave the property.

To protect their farm or plant, many owners are encouraged to consider the option of installing vehicle disinfecting systems. Tecpro Australia now offers Vehicle Disinfection Systems that are easy to install at the entrance (and exit) of a plant or farm.

Designed and manufactured in Italy, the modular system can be constructed to fit the largest trucks with just a screwdriver, a spanner and 40 min. Trucks simply pass through the system as they enter or leave a premises while a series of nozzles spray disinfectant around the perimeter of each truck — from top to bottom and along the sides.

The system is available as a modular kit containing everything required — including the pump, galvanised steel platforms and stainless steel enclosure to house the pump and electrical panels. Customised kits can also be designed by Tecpro to suit the user’s particular specifications.
