Industrial oven cleaning
Industrial ovens, from bakery tunnels to metallurgical furnaces, require specialized cleaning programs that ensure food safety, energy efficiency, and equipment longevity. ICS offers tailored solutions capable of accessing complex areas and extraction systems without stopping production longer than necessary.
Problems with industrial oven cleaning
Ovens accumulate carbon deposits, charred fats, flours, soot, and volatile compounds that reduce thermal transfer and can create fire hazards. In addition, associated extraction systems become saturated with sticky residues that decrease draft and contaminate the working environment. High temperatures, variable dimensions, and limited access complicate intervention and increase costs if manual methods are used.
Risks and consequences
- Increased energy consumption due to carbon deposit insulation.
- Cross-contamination and undesirable flavors in food.
- Risk of fire in hoods and ducts due to accumulated grease.
- Unscheduled shutdowns due to failure of fans or dirty sensors.
- Non-compliance with food hygiene regulations (HACCP, IFS).
Types of common waste
Carbonized fats from oils and marinades
Flour and starches caramelized on walls and belts
Soot and particles from incomplete combustion
Polymers and resins in powder coating ovens
Lime deposits in humidification systems
ICS tailored solutions
Our engineering department designs cleaning heads adapted to each type and size of oven. All equipment can operate at maintenance temperatures or during short stops, reducing downtime.
