Improve food processing plant maintenance with high-quality Nilfisk CFM HEPA industrial vacuums

Food contaminants – like allergens, insects, rodents and harmful bacteria – will find their way you're your facility and into your products. It's inevitable. In fact, every year 76 million cases of foodborne illness occur in the U.S. alone and product recalls costs hundreds of millions of dollars and destroy company brands.

That's why we've dedicated more than 50 years innovating advanced cleaning solutions that meet your specific food safety and quality demands – limiting cross contamination in production lines; increasing compliance with the Food & Drug Administration's GMPs and the HACCPs, and preventing allergen-related product recalls.

Nilfisk CFM industrial vacuums stop the spread of dangerous pathogens otherwise spread by brooms, mops, rags, compressed air – even inadequately filtered vacuums. Our advanced filtering technology with HEPA filters guarantees the most thorough cleaning, capturing bacteria down to 0.3 microns in size. And our ULPA filters collect 99.999% of all ultra-fine particles – down to and including 0.12 microns. We've also engineered our industrial HEPA vacuums and ULPA vacuums for maximum efficiency, protecting filters from premature clogging.

Today, our industrial vacuums are integral to the production and packaging processes of major food-industry customers like Kraft, Hershey, and Nestle.
