<p>SmartWash customer NewStar Fresh Foods has dramatically increased process control with the addition of SmartWash Solution to their wash lines, according to a press release. With the integration of SmartWash, NewStar Fresh Foods is able to maintain and monitor critical free chlorine levels at optimum levels with essential reliability. SmartWash, a patented food wash enhancer, boosts the effectiveness of standard chlorine-based wash systems while also guaranteeing the consistent removal of pathogens and mitigation of cross contamination of E. coli and salmonella.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> “Before SmartWash, and in order to be assured that we would not go below a set point, we had to have that set point dramatically higher than the critical control point,” said Ken Baseman, NewStar Fresh Foods Vice President of Food Safety and QA. “Now I can have my set point three or four parts per million away from my critical control point and still be in control. SmartWash gives us much tighter control in a much narrower range of operation, which increases efficiency while at the same time protecting the quality of the product.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> NewStar integrated SmartWash into their wash systems in Spring 2013 and immediately saw dramatic improvement in process and chemical control. Glenn Adler, Director of Engineering, calls SmartWash “safe, repeatable, and reliable.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> “SmartWash was developed to improve food safety, but it is also a powerful tool in process control,” says SmartWash’s Steven Swarts. “If a company can improve line efficiency, that translates to a better bottom line. It’s gratifying to help a customer see such dramatic results. It’s a win for everyone.”</p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href="http://smartwashsolutions.com/" target="_new"> SmartWash </a><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href="http://newstarfresh.com/"> NewStar Fresh Foods </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
