Safety
The large selection of brands and combinations of chemicals available for deodorizing, disinfecting and sanitizing is staggering. Select one or more agents for use in your facility only after weighing all the benefits claimed by each product. Often this choice is made without adequate consideration of the effects these agents may produce on equipment or furnishings.
CAUTION: Before selecting a chemical to employ in your facility, review label statements regarding use with metals (stainless steel). Always consult the chemical supplier if there are any doubts.
Avoid prolonged use of chlorides (such as chlorine bleach), bromides, iodides and thiocyanates on stainless steel surfaces as these chemicals will cause pitting, corrosion and metal discoloration. Allowing salty solutions to evaporate and dry on stainless steel may also contribute to corrosive conditions.
In summary, select chemical deodorizers, disinfectants and/or sanitizers only after weighing all possible benefits and known adverse effects.
