Not only in the food industry, but in various sectors (such as horticulture, pharmaceuticals, electronics, cosmetics, etc...) hygiene is not a luxury, but an absolute necessity. Companies therefore invest in an advanced central or decentralised cleaning system to keep their production environment in top condition. The cleaning procedure has a strict schedule, but what if a malfunction occurs? An unexpected failure in the cleaning system can bring production to a standstill, with all its consequences: delays, increased risk of contamination and even financial losses. This is where the mobile cleaning unit SMU comes into the picture as the ideal back-up solution.

The impact of a failure in the cleaning system

In most industries, continuity is crucial. A production downtime can lead not only to financial losses, but also to hygiene, safety and regulatory compliance issues. When a central or decentralised cleaning system suddenly fails, operators cannot perform the necessary cleaning procedures. This increases the risk of contamination and quality problems, and can also delay deliveries or jeopardise contractual obligations. A quick solution is essential, and this can be achieved with a mobile back-up unit.

The SMU mobile cleaning unit as a lifesaver

The mobile cleaning unit SMU ‘by BOONS FIS’ is a compact, flexible and efficient solution to immediately deal with a cleaning problem. This unit, with compressor (SMU-K) or without compressor (SMU) is designed to be used quickly and can operate either independently or in combination with a reel.

This keeps the production environment hygienic and allows cleaning processes to continue uninterrupted, even in the event of a technical failure.

Advantages of the SMU

  • Immediately deployable
    No complicated installation required, just connect and clean.
  • Compact, safe and mobile
    With a reel (option) mounted on top of the bracket, the cleaning hose is also safely rolled up every time. In this way, the SMU is easily movable to the location within the production where it is needed.
  • Easy operation
    With the handy selection button, the operator selects between foaming, rinsing or disinfecting.
  • Flexible use
    Suitable for various applications and can be used for both small and large cleaning tasks.
  • Prevents production loss
    Quick intervention allows production to continue.

A smart investment for the future

Although companies pay a lot of attention to preventive maintenance, technical problems can never be completely exluded. A mobile back-up cleaning unit is therefore not a superfluous luxury, but a strategic investment.

With the SMU as backup, companies in various sectors, such as food industry, horticulture, pharmacy and other industries, remain assured of optimum hygiene and continuity, even in emergency situations.

A well-functioning cleaning system is crucial in almost all sectors. But to be really sure of uninterrupted production and maximum hygiene, a mobile backup unit such as the SMU is a smart choice. This not only keeps production running, but also guarantees safety and quality - which, after all, is what it's all about.
