| Recent incidents
such as E. Coli and Salmonella outbreaks in the US and Canada have
led to massive losses in the affected industries. Biotek's ozonated
water does not only eliminate all viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms,
but also eliminates odors (eg. seafood display) and decomposes pesticides
and chemicals without affecting the taste of food.
Ozone has been protecting public health in drinking water and wastewater
treatment for more than 100 years and has proven to be a safe and
effective antimicrobial, sanitizer and disinfectant in numerous
commercial and industrial applications. In 2001, the FDA approved
the use of ozone treatment on food products because of the advancements
in ozone generator technology and growing concerns over the safety
of chemical disinfectants. Biotek has developed ozone technology
to specifically meet the needs of today's Food Service.

| The following
issues led to the development of our state of the art Ozonated Water
Systems:
- Each day, millions of people become ill from foodborne
diseases
- Each year, thousands of people die from a preventable
foodborne disease
- Demand for effective disinfection in the Food Service
- Ineffectiveness and drawbacks of chemical disinfectants
- Need for an environmentally friendly disinfection
solution toprofessionals
- Demand for cost effective complete disinfection
system
- Chemical disinfectants leave harmful residues and
by-products
- Removal of pesticides and chemicals is critical
in food processing
- Microorganisms can build up a tolerance to chlorine
based Disinfectants
With Biotek's Ozone Disinfection
Systems your business can:
- Ensure HACCP compliant operations
- Limit liabilities and safety hazards
- Ensure that the health of employees is not harmed
by chemical disinfectants
- Improve customer satisfaction by removing chemicals
- Extend the shelf life and preserve the fresh appearance,
color, and aroma of food
- Turn tap water into a strong disinfectant that
kills viruses and bacteria on contact
- Save time and money by replacing chemicals that
require regular purchase
- Maintain an odorless, clean, and healthy
working environment
