Compact and Versatile Solutions

Claranor’s Pulsed Light solutions stand out due to their compact design, making them ideal for manufacturers looking to optimize their production lines particularly when space is critical. The latest cup unit, for example, measures just 360 x 320 x 160 mm, ensuring it can be easily integrated into an existing production line. This level of adaptability allows businesses to improve their decontamination processes without major infrastructure overhauls.

Powerful and Effective

The Pulsed light technology is powerful enough to replace more traditional methods like chemicals, as proven by Claranor’s beverage and dairy applications. Pulsed light is a high-intensity, short-duration flash of light that kills microorganisms on the surface of packaging, making it an efficient solution for sterilization. For industries dealing with sensitive products, this advancement is particularly crucial, offering a non-chemical and effective alternative to help ensure safety and extended shelf life.

Cost-Efficient Operations

One of the major advantages of pulsed light technology is its cost-efficiency. Claranor’s solutions can operate at just 20 € per million caps, with one lamp capable of decontaminating 50 million 28mm caps. Compared to decontamination methods that require expensive consumables or recurring maintenance, pulsed light significantly reduces operational costs, making it a financially viable choice for large-scale manufacturers.

Sustainable CleanTech Innovation

With increasing consumer and regulatory pressure on industries to adopt environmentally friendly practices, pulsed light technology positions itself as a sustainable alternative. It is a “clean” technology that avoids the use of harmful chemicals and reduces water and energy consumption. Claranor has established itself as a leader in providing eco-conscious solutions, trusted by water producers for its ability to preserve the purity of natural springs while maintaining impressive production speeds of up to 120,000 bottles per hour.

Future-Proofing the Packaging Industry

The global shift towards more sustainable practices makes pulsed light packaging decontamination more relevant than ever. As industries are pushed to lower their carbon footprints, reduce chemical usage, and operate more cost-effectively, adopting solutions like Claranor’s pulsed light becomes an obvious choice.

Conclusion

The move towards pulsed light packaging decontamination is not just a technological trend; it is a response to the critical need for safer, more sustainable, and cost-efficient packaging solutions. Claranor’s expertise and cutting-edge technology make it a compelling choice for businesses looking to future-proof their operations while contributing to a cleaner, more responsible world.
