Winery Hygiene

Cleanliness cannot be over-stressed in the winery.

Not only does a winery have a legal obligation to produce a product that is pure and free from contamination, it is in the winery’s best interest to produce a clean, contaminant-free product in a sanitary and safe environment. A significant portion of a winery’s sales is actually sold on premise where customers will often pay to tour. At the minimum, the winery is best served to keep the production area clean for visiting customers.

Spec Trellising offers several high-quality, electric powered/electric heated, environmentally friendly machines designed to clean and sanitize production equipment.

The Vapor One and Vapor Duo are compact, easy-to-use, environmentally friendly electric powered and electric heated steam generators designed to sanitize barrels, tanks, filters, hoses and fillers.  Heat is a proven method for sanitizing surfaces of equipment and is very simple to use.  The Vapor One and Vapor Duo models are mobile, robust steam generators that can efficiently sanitize equipment with minimal effort, minimal water usage and require little maintenance.
