Pallet Washer
SS Engineers & Consultants provide hygienic, high-throughput washing systems purpose-built for
meat and poultry pallets, logistics crates, and cold-chain handling platforms.
Engineered in
SS304/316 with food-grade seals and sanitary welds, our pallet washers efficiently
remove
blood, fats, proteins, feathers, hatchery debris, and organic soils from returnable
pallets used
in slaughterhouses, hatcheries, and processing facilities. Multi-zone chambers
(pre-wash, detergent wash, rinse, and optional hot-rinse/sanitize at 82–85 °C) combine
high-impact
spray manifolds with adjustable conveyor speeds to deliver consistent, microbiologically safe results
while
minimizing water, chemical, and energy consumption.
Features include CIP-ready tanks with filtration, automated chemical dosing, inline temperature control, easy-access maintenance doors, and hygienic sloped surfaces for full drainage. PLC/SCADA automation with recipe management allows handling of different SKUs such as meat transport pallets, hatchery platforms, protein crates, and cold-chain bins. Optional air-knife blow-off and hot-air drying reduce residual moisture for faster turnaround to cutting halls, packing stations, or cold stores, fully supporting HACCP, FSMS, and global meat-industry hygiene compliance.
