BioDtex biofilm detection

BioDtex biofilm detection lamp

Testimonial

“Within just four weeks of using the BioDtex UV Detector, we saw a measurable reduction in microbial risk. Contamination zones were clearly defined, biofilm hotspots identified, and cleaning SOPs revised, especially in hard-to-reach areas like under belts and rollers. Investigations became faster and more targeted, and we experienced zero delays in positive release. BioDtex has proven to be a rapid, non-destructive, and cost-effective tool that’s now integral to our hygiene validation and compliance with BRCGS standards.” Fresh Produce Manufacturing Plant (UK)

Detecting physical, microbiological, allergen and chemical contamination in food & beverage manufacturing environments is a constant challenge. Traditional swabbing methods often miss critical contamination, putting safety and compliance at risk.
Used alongside ATP testing, BioDtex’s advanced UV-A technology instantly illuminates high-risk areas, making invisible threats visible and guiding more accurate lab sampling.
From Listeria and Salmonella to E. coli, Pseudomonas, and yeast, BioDtex helps uncover what other methods miss, boosting hygiene standards and reducing risk across your facility.
