Deeper Dive:
UVZone® Shoe Sanitizing Stations combine UV-C light and ozone to actively kill up to 99.9993% of pathogens on the soles of shoes within seconds. This dual-disinfection method targets one of the most overlooked contamination vectors—footwear—right at the point of entry. The system works without chemicals, liquids, or wipes, ensuring zero residue and no risk to sensitive production flooring.
Designed for seamless integration into clean manufacturing workflows, UVZone® operates hands-free with no staff oversight. Its intelligent sensors activate instantly when stepped on, and customizable cycle durations ensure consistent disinfection for every user. The result is a safer, more compliant environment that protects equipment, products, and personnel from harmful microbial intrusion.
When to use it
Use UVZone® anywhere in your food manufacturing facility where foot traffic crosses into a controlled or critical zone.
Install it at GMP and HACCP entryways, cold storage doors, ingredient prep rooms, packaging areas, and any other point where contamination from shoes could compromise your food safety plan. It’s ideal for high-traffic transitions between raw and ready-to-eat zones, or between warehouse and production environments. If your SSOP calls for floor or footwear control, this is the system built to enforce it — consistently, automatically, and without disrupting workflow.
-
Before entering clean zones – Stops contaminants at the door before workers cross into controlled environments.
-
At shift changes – Ensures new personnel begin their work free of microbial transfer from previous locations.
-
After breaks or off-floor activity – Maintains cleanroom standards when employees re-enter production areas.
-
In tandem with gowning/PPE protocols – Complements handwashing, boot covers, and full-body suits without slowing workflow.
-
When meeting HACCP, GMP, or ISO requirements – Helps achieve and document compliance with safety and quality standards.
Deeper Dive:
Here’s your revised Deeper Dive section, rewritten for food manufacturing with stronger keyword inclusion and flow:
Use UVZone® right where contamination risks begin — at the point of entry into your food manufacturing environment. Install it at transitions into clean zones, packaging areas, production floors, or any area governed by your food safety plan. Even brief off-floor movement — like returning from breaks or entering from warehouses — presents risk. UVZone® ensures every return to the line starts with fully sanitized footwear.
The system reinforces barrier protocols required by GMP, HACCP, SSOP, and certifications like SQF, FSSC 22000, and ISO 22000. Unlike chemical footbaths or manual mats, UVZone® delivers measurable, repeatable, and automated sanitization — no moisture, no chemicals, and no added training. It’s a frictionless but powerful upgrade to your compliance and pathogen control strategy.
Where to use it
UVZone® is designed to be placed at critical control points where foot traffic can introduce harmful pathogens into clean or production zones. Ideal installation areas include:
Wherever your food safety plan calls for control of floor and footwear contamination, UVZone® provides an automated, dry, and chemical-free solution that reinforces your compliance efforts and protects your production line.
- GMP entryways leading into production or packaging floors
- HACCP-designated zones where footwear sanitation is required
- Transitions between warehouse and processing areas
- Break room and restroom exits to re-sanitize footwear before reentry
- Cold storage access points where moisture control and contamination prevention are essential
- Ingredient prep and raw material handling areas to prevent cross-contamination
- SSOP-defined floor control zones where repeatable sanitation processes are required
Deeper Dive:
Here’s the corrected version of that section — fully focused on food manufacturing, with strong keyword targeting and tighter relevance:
UVZone® should be installed exactly where the risk of contamination is greatest — at the threshold of food-safe zones. In food manufacturing environments, these include GMP entryways, HACCP control points, and SSOP-defined transitions where employee footwear can introduce dangerous pathogens like Salmonella, Listeria, or E. coli onto production floors.
High-traffic locations such as employee entrances, breakroom exits, raw-to-ready crossover zones, and warehouse access doors are ideal for UVZone® placement. By positioning the system at these strategic control points, you create an invisible sanitation barrier that reinforces your food safety plan, supports ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000 compliance, and helps meet the strict standards of programs like SQF and BRCGS. It’s your frontline defense where foot traffic meets food production.

Minimizing Risk
Improving Compliance
To help improve our compliance with USP 797 and minimize the risk of pathogens contaminating our clean room, we added the PathO3Gen Solutions’ Shoe Sanitizing Station to our department’s action plan.
The stations are now part of our process that each employee uses prior to entering our clean room.
Our last Air and Surface samples were negative for any growth in both rooms for the first time ever. We will continue to utilize the PathO3Gen Solutions Shoe Sanitizing Station in our ante room because the more tools we have to minimize risk, the better.
