The 2017 hurricane season has made a devastating impact on the United States. Between hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria the United States will be trying to recover for many years to come. With the advanced warning systems in place today, there is plenty of time to prepare. But sometimes no matter how much a community prepares, disaster still strikes and food safety becomes a serious issue.

It can take days in some instances for help to arrive with necessary resources such as drinking water and food. With power outages and severe flooding, food items can quickly become contaminated and hazardous if consumed. There are a number of food safety tips set forth by the USDA.  

Food Safety Tips for Before the Loss of Power

With today’s technology, there is ample warning before a hurricane potentially makes landfall. This gives plenty of time to prepare a week or more in advance. Do not wait until the last minute because resources become limited and hard to find. It is best to prepare for the loss of power long before it happens. There are a number of food safety tips that can help mitigate this situation including:

1. Fill containers with water and fill empty freezer space. A full freezer will hold food at safe temperatures for about 2 days. A day before the hurricane is expected to make landfall, take some of the frozen containers of water and put them in coolers and in the refrigerator. Fill more containers to replace the ones taken from the freezer. Not only are these frozen containers going to keep food at a safe temperature for a longer amount of time, but they can also serve as drinking water if necessary.
2. Keep appliance thermometers in the freezer and fridge. The thermometers will indicate the temperature within the refrigerator and freezer, and tell if the food is safe to eat. A freezer should be below 0⁰ F and a refrigerator should be below 40⁰F.
3.  Freeze refrigerated foods. Freezing refrigerated foods that are not going to be immediately used such as left overs, milk, and fresh meat will keep these items at a safe temperature for a longer amount of time.

BioClean Technologies is a bio scientific, engineering services, and manufacturing company headquartered in Laguna Niguel, California that produces green and biodegradable industrial cleaning products worldwide.  BioClean was founded with the idea that cleaners should be powerful and effective without compromising health or harming the environment.  The technology behind green cleaning products started decades ago, but BioClean Technologies has used recent advances in the biomolecular field to refine their products to what they are today.  The company continues to perform biochemical research and analysis in an effort to ultimately replace all commercial cleaning products with eco-friendly solutions that are just as effective as their less environmentally friendly counterparts.  All of BioClean Technologies’ products are 100% eco-friendly and have perfect ratings of zero for the Material Safety Data Sheet ("MSDS") Hazard Rating categories of Health, Fire, Reactivity, and Special.  Surely no traditional cleaning product can make that claim!

Unfortunately, eco-friendly cleaners generally have a reputation of not being as powerful or effective as their traditional counterparts.  However, BioClean Technologies has made such chemical advances with their products that they can’t even be compared to earlier environmentally friendly products.  Using advanced chemistry and custom design and development of chemical reagents, the products BioClean Technologies has created provides unique chemical reactions that create a far more effective commercial green cleaning product compared to regular cleaners and degreasers.  Not only can BioClean Technologies boast about the effectiveness of their line of products, they can also be proud of the fact that they are completely safe, using all natural ingredients that are on the NSF, DfE and CleanGredient list.  This means no special storage requirements or training is needed and the product is also completely sustainable.  They contain no VOC’s and operate at a normal pH – which means they’re safe to handle and easy to use and dispose of.  If the price conscious business is worried, rest assured - BioClean Technologies’ products are competitively priced with traditional, non-green products so the end user doesn’t pay more in order to be environmentally friendly. 

BioClean Technologies offers a variety of eco-friendly industrial cleaning chemicals for any situation or application.

Placing a price on clean water, topsoil, and natural ecologies were previously thought as externalities: costs considered unnecessary and not worth consideration by a majority of economists and professionals until today. In our ever increasing and interconnected global economy it becomes unmistakably clear that our world’s economies are heavily dependent on each other and on our natural resources. Our environment naturally filters water, pollinates plants, provides topsoil and manure for free that would otherwise cost us a fortune and render our economies immobile.

We at BioClean technologies are true to the nature of clairvoyants. We see the potential for a tremendous market for commercial green cleaning products that has only begun to take hold. Products that are eco-friendly and can clean just as well as the synthetic and ecologically harmful cleaners are the way of the future.

A growing number of less-toxic industrial cleaning products are now available both in stores and online. But due to the fact that manufacturers are not required to list all of their ingredients, unless they are active disinfectants or known to be potentially hazardous, it can be a challenge for consumers to find the least-toxic formulations.

Your best defense is to carefully read and understand the label warnings on commercial and industrial cleaning supplies, which can be challenging. All industrial and commercial cleaners that contain known hazardous chemicals must carry a warning label that spells out potential risks, along with precautionary steps and first-aid instructions.
In general, the more serious the safety warning on a product, the more likely that it poses risks to your health and the environment. Products labeled "Poison" or "Danger" are likely to be more toxic than those labeled "Warning" or "Caution."

It is important for anyone purchasing industrial cleaning products such as parts cleaners to know the various terminology used on labels. If a product is labeled "Danger" it will be corrosive, extremely flammable, highly toxic, or poisonous. Commercial and industrial degreaser often bear this label. "Caution" or "Warning" are catchall terms for many other hazards, so consumers are advised to scan for specifics such as "Vapor harmful," "Causes burns," or "May be fatal or cause blindness if swallowed." Products bearing the label "Irritants" will cause injury or inflammation on contact, whereas "Corrosives" refers to chemicals that destroy tissue. "Sensitizers" are ingredients that can cause allergic reactions and chronic adverse health effects that become evident only after continuing exposures. “Chronic Health Hazards" may include effects ranging from sterility and birth defects to cancer.

Many industrial cleaning products will also carry claims about the safety of their products on health and the environment. It is often the case, however, that these claims are not independently verified or regulated.

For example, if a product claims to be non-toxic, it implies that the product will cause no harm to the environment or the consumer. There is currently no standard industry definition for the term “non-toxic” and unless stated otherwise, there is no organization verifying the claim. Likewise, many heavy duty cleaners, degreasers, parts cleaners, solvents etc will claim to be “natural.” Again, there is no industry standard so manufacturers can use the term as they please. It is no guarantee that the product will be completely safe. For example, even natural ingredients such as lemon juice can cause irritation if they get into the eyes. Other similar terms that lack definitions are “eco-friendly”, “green” and “biodegradable” which although does have some useful meaning, is only loosely defined by the federal government.

When purchasing commercial and industrial cleaning products, always check the ingredients list. With that said, manufacturers are not required to list every ingredient that is in their products, and unlike the food industry, the ingredients are not always listed in the order according to the relative amounts of the individual ingredients. Although not every ingredient may be listed, it is a requirement that companies list any harmful or hazardous ingredients.

Anyone with concerns about specific ingredients within a cleaning product is advised to call the company that manufactures the product. The name and address must be listed on all household and industrial cleaners, degreasers and solvents so that consumers are able to contact them with any questions, comments or concerns. Consumers can also request a material safety data sheet (MSDS) which contains information on the more toxic ingredients or formulations used.

Manufacturers may also post MSDS reports on their Web sites. Consumers can search for safety information on brand-specific products and their ingredients by visiting a government website. There is a governmental guide that includes the potential health effects of more than 2,000 ingredients contained in 6,000 common household products.
Play it safe. Whether using commercial or industrial cleaners, it’s important to follow safety precautions. Users should avoid splashing industrial cleaners on their skin or face and check labels to see if respiratory masks, rubber gloves, goggles, or other protective measures are recommended.
People with heart or lung disease and pregnant women should try to avoid products that contain chemical solvents. And since contact lenses can absorb vapors and hold them against the eye, causing irritation or eye damage, anyone who normally wears contacts should remove them and put on eyeglasses before handling such products. If the heavy duty cleaner, degreaser, parts washer, solvent or other industrial cleaning product causes irritation to the nose, eyes and/or lungs, it is highly advisable that the person stops using them immediately. Finally, anyone diluting an industrial cleaner should be sure to clearly label their products, and keep all cleaners out of reach of those not given permission to use the products.

Here are some more tips on using commercial cleaning products:

• An All-Purpose industrial cleaners often cost less. A multifunctional industrial cleaner will almost always save you money, since you won’t be paying for several products. One industrial all-purpose cleaner can work for many projects.
• Using fewer cleaners can save money. Try to find one or two cleaners that can effectively clean a variety of surfaces. You’ll not only be able to save money and space, you’ll also cut down on packaging waste.
• Buying larger sizes tends to be cheaper in the long run. Larger sizes such as drums or totes are usually, less expensive, gallon for gallon. Choosing large sizes can also mean buying less often, reduce transportation cost, and help to reduce packaging waste.
• An ounce of prevention... If you can prevent stains from setting in by taking care of them right away, you’ll reduce the need for tough specialty cleaners, which are often relatively expensive, more toxic, and harmful to surfaces. Or better yet, try to prevent stains from happening in the first place.
