Sanitization Part Washers for Cannabis Processing

Cannabis processing is a sticky situation. Rely on Better Engineering to provide a cleaning system to solve your facility’s processing equipment cleanliness challenges.  Better Engineering empowers cannabis industry professionals with our specialized part washer for cleaning cannabis-related trays, filling stations, and ancillary components. Our innovative solution ensures thorough sanitation, eliminating residue and contaminants to uphold product quality and compliance standards. With a commitment to hygiene and efficiency, our system streamlines cleaning processes, enabling operators to achieve consistent performance and peace of mind.

Sustainability Starts Here

The rapidly expanding market for cannabis and cannabinoid products such as CBD and hemp presents a significant opportunity for businesses. However, maintaining strict safety and sanitization standards can be complex for companies involved in the entire process, from seed to sale.

Whether cultivators utilize hydroponic techniques, outdoor growing, or focus on producing consumables, adhering to rigorous cleaning standards is crucial to safeguarding products from potential contaminants and microbial threats.

In the cannabis industry, ensuring tray hygiene poses a considerable challenge for growers. Inadequately sanitized trays can spread fungi, which can contaminate other plants and products placed in the same container after harvest, resulting in compromised products and financial losses.

Our forte is upholding the highest hygienic standards, even in the most demanding environments. We are dedicated to helping you overcome critical cleaning challenges with our advanced sanitizing tray washers. Our tray washers are designed to eliminate dirt and even cells containing complete root balls effectively.

Furthermore, our rack washers are engineered to deliver superior cleaning of hoses, nozzles, gummy molds, and other components where potentially harmful contaminants that could compromise your product’s integrity may reside.

Additionally, BE rack washers provide superior cleaning of hoses, nozzles, gummy molds, and other elements where potentially harmful contaminants that taint your product may hide.

Better Engineering Cannabis Processing Cleaning Equipment: Powerful, Precise, Problem-Solved

In the cannabis industry, maintaining a clean and compliant environment is crucial for success. Yet, traditional cleaning methods often fall short, posing significant challenges for processors and cultivators. Here’s where Better Engineering shines.

Our automated part-washing systems offer a comprehensive cannabis part cleaning solution that addresses every aspect of your cleaning needs.  Forget time-consuming manual scrubbing and the hazards of harsh chemicals.  Better Engineering’s systems automate the entire process, from washing and rinsing to final drying, ensuring consistent and measurable results every time.  This eliminates human error and guarantees uniform cleanliness across your equipment, significantly reducing the risk of microbial contamination that could lead to lost batches and costly recalls.

But Better Engineering goes beyond simple automation. We understand the importance of data-driven decision-making and regulatory compliance. We’ve incorporated Aqua Insights, our innovative data acquisition software. Aqua Insights provides real-time process insights, allowing you to optimize your cleaning cycles, minimize resource consumption, and stay ahead of regulatory requirements.  The software captures and stores every data point within your washer, giving you a clear picture of cleaning conditions and ensuring complete traceability.

The benefits of choosing Better Engineering extend far beyond a clean product.  Our automated systems prioritize operator safety by eliminating exposure to harsh chemicals and repetitive manual labor.  Decarboxylated material, a common challenge, is easily removed in a fraction of the time it takes with manual cleaning. The integrated drying process also eliminates the risk of water residue, a potential breeding ground for bacteria and leftover cleaning agents.  This translates to increased productivity, lower labor costs, and reduced energy, chemicals, and water consumption.  By choosing Better Engineering, you can achieve a cleaner, safer, and more efficient operation, allowing you to focus on what matters most – delivering high-quality cannabis products. 

The Better Engineering Advantage

When it comes to choosing the right part washers for your cannabis processing facility, Better Engineering offers two ideal options: conveyorized and rack washers. Each caters to specific needs within your workflow. 

Conveyorized Washers:

  • High-Throughput Cleaning: Conveyorized washers excel at processing large volumes of equipment efficiently. The continuous flow design allows for uninterrupted cleaning of parts, trays, and tools, maximizing productivity and minimizing downtime. This is ideal for busy facilities with a constant stream of equipment requiring cleaning.
  • Variety of Parts Handling:  Conveyorized systems offer versatility in handling different-sized and shaped parts. The customizable conveyor configuration adapts to your specific equipment, thoroughly cleaning even intricate components.

Rack Washers:

  • Deep Cleaning for Delicate Equipment: Rack washers are perfect for parts that require a more delicate touch or have complex geometries. The rack system provides a secure and stable platform for cleaning, preventing damage to sensitive equipment. This is ideal for cleaning filtration systems, valves, and other intricate components.
  • Organized Cleaning Process:  Rack washers offer a structured cleaning approach. By organizing parts within racks, you maintain control over the cleaning process and ensure each component receives proper attention. This is beneficial for facilities with a focus on meticulous cleaning and organization.

Ultimately, the best choice between conveyorized and rack washers depends on your workflow and cleaning needs. By understanding the strengths of each system, you can select the ideal solution for optimizing your cannabis processing facility’s cleaning efficiency and ensuring the highest hygiene standards.
