In food and beverage manufacturing, cold storage and temperature-controlled warehouses are mission-critical. Whether you're storing dairy, beverages, proteins, or perishable ingredients, contamination risks remain—even in sub-zero environments. Without proper sanitation, harmful bacteria like Listeria monocytogenes can thrive in these cold zones, leading to massive product recalls and FSMA violations.
At iNX Commercial Cleaning Solutions, we specialize in cleaning protocols tailored to cold chain environments, ensuring your facility meets food safety standards while minimizing operational disruption.
The FDA's Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) requires all food facilities, including cold storage operations, to implement science-based preventive controls. According to FSMA data:
“The goal is to ensure the U.S. food supply is safe by shifting the focus from responding to contamination to preventing it.”
That includes:
Cold storage isn’t exempt—these facilities must show they are actively preventing contamination risks despite lower temperatures.
Our approach is engineered to reduce microbial load, minimize moisture buildup, and support uninterrupted operations in food and beverage cold chain facilities.
Standard sanitizers freeze or lose effectiveness at low temperatures. iNX uses EPA-registered agents that are engineered for low-temperature efficacy and comply with FDA regulations, ensuring full-spectrum sanitation even in -10°F conditions.
Ice buildup, standing water, and condensation can harbor dangerous pathogens like Salmonella and Listeria. Our technicians are trained to mitigate these risks and maintain a dry, food-safe environment.
Drains, freezer floors, and high-traffic loading areas are hotspots for contamination. We use scrubber-dryers, foaming disinfectants, and thermal-safe tools to deep-clean every surface.
iNX can provide detailed cleaning logs that include time stamps, products used, zones covered, and before/after documentation. These records are designed to align with FSMA requirements and can be integrated into your internal audit process to support ongoing compliance efforts.
Our teams are scheduled around your production schedule to avoid disruptions. We clean quickly, thoroughly, and in full coordination with your plant operations team.
Food & beverage manufacturers face intense scrutiny from regulators, retailers, and consumers alike. FSMA compliance is table stakes, but sanitation is also a brand safeguard. One contamination event can lead to recalls, lawsuits, or permanent reputational damage.
That’s why leading brands partner with iNX for cleaning protocols that are:
Protect your cold storage investment with a cleaning partner that understands FSMA and food safety inside and out.
