The Difference in Santizing and disinfecting

​There is a big difference between cleaning (Washing) and sanitizing. ...... And also sanitizing and disinfecting

So which is best for your industry ? 
Well firstly your cleaning procedure is where you get the visible dirt off,  when you sanitize you add a protective layer which reduces the risk of contamination or bacteria to a safe level.

Now- lets stop right there for a moment - Both of the above are useless if you are using dirty cloths, sponges, water in the process....?? Oh yes its a classic - 

After cleaning it's good to sanitize where possible, call it a double measure to ensure your cooking utensils and dishes are protected  from microbes. Sanitizer, however is only good for certain things - Sanitizing is best for surfaces that don't typically come into contact with seriously dangerous bacteria, or those that are best left without contact with powerful chemicals.  Think kitchen equipment, Chopping boards, Plates, cutlery, surfaces used for preparation etc. 

Disinfecting kills everything on a particular surface and is not suitable for any item which will possibly come into contact with food, including dishes, pans, cutlery etc. think will this possible come into contact with touch which can then be transferred into the body.
Disinfection is particularly good for the big masses, particularly those involving blood, body fluids etc to prevent the spread of deadly germs.

So sanitizing lowers the level of the germs on the surface and disinfection kills all of them.
