Competitive Advantage

keeper-red-meat-6KEEPER® Professional Technology has distinct advantages over other ASC products via FCN 739 which allows Keeper to be delivered up to 1200 ppm with no lower limit. FCN 739 also allows KEEPER® Professional to be applied at or near neutral pH promoting a favorable organoleptic advantage versus technologies employing their chemistry at less than a 2.9 pH. Furthermore, Keeper allows activation of concentrate resulting in substantial savings in activation chemistry.

Activation Systems

The active ingredient in KEEPER® Professional is Acidifed Sodium Chlorite that generates Chlorine Dioxide. To increase the speed of kill and efficacy of KEEPER® Professional , the pH of the solution shall be reduced with any Food Grade GRAS acid to acidify the Sodium Chlorite.

Activation may be accomplished manually for low-volume batch applications. BCI offers the hands-free, low cost, non-electric AANE™ unit and the on-line activation system OLAS™ Ti for continuous injection into water streams.

Use KEEPER® Professional to Avoid Expensive Recalls.
