Results in Action

Reduced Water and Chemical Consumption

Dynamic CIP control adjusts cleaning cycles based on each piece of equipment’s needs, resulting in less water and fewer chemicals.

Improved Process Efficiency and Flexibility

Operators can tweak cleaning parameters on the fly, making it easy to respond to production demands without being locked into rigid, time-based cycles.

Data-Driven Continuous Improvement

Integrated reporting tracks CIP performance and savings over time, laying the groundwork for ongoing optimization even as ROI is still being evaluated.

The system was set up to run for the same amount of time regardless of the equipment being cleaned or the actual level of cleanliness that was needed. With FT Batch, the company can now modify the time, flow, and amount of chemical used for each of their six production areas.
