pH adjusters used primarily in poultry
Used to raise the pH of the water and vessel treated by Perasafe
Raising pH saves or increases yield
Range usually 8.0 – 9.5 without organoleptic issues
pH Adjustment for Perasafe
Per-Ox
4325 Per-Ox - 5.25% active PAA
EPA # 833-4
Treatment of raw, unprocessed fruits and vegetables
For use on Raw Agricultural Commodities that are applied in the field, at treatment facilities where raw agricultural commodities are the only food treated and the treatment does not change the status of the food as a raw agricultural commodity, and during transportation from the field to such a facility
4367 Per-Ox Extreme - 15% active PAA
EPA # 833-5
Treatment of raw, unprocessed fruits and vegetables
For use on Raw Agricultural Commodities that are applied in the field, at treatment facilities where raw agricultural commodities are the only food treated and the treatment does not change the status of the food as a raw agricultural commodity, and during transportation from the field to such a facility
Benefits of Perasafe
Helps ensure and/or increase shelf-life
Helps processors meet government regulations for tolerance levels
Helps maintain brand protection
There are no labeling requirements
Acceptable for use in the production of Organic Foods
Spraying products and lines may allow extended runs of conveyers and reduce the number of cleanings that are needed to maintain sanitary conditions
Environmentally friendly - breaks down into acetic acid, water and oxygen
