Start Clean, Stay Clean
The Cleaning & Disinfecting Program is designed as an effective solution for microbial control and protection across you entire growing operation. The Pace ACBD System® defines the best sanitation practice by Always Cleaning Before Disinfecting (ACBD).
Starting with a cleaned and disinfected growing environment protects crops and workers. Our disinfectant and industry specific cleaning products provide deep cleaning for optimum plant and human pathogen control on surfaces.
Implement the Pace Gold Standard of Cleaning & Disinfecting in 3 simple steps:
- CLEAN: Apply job specific cleaner and allow to sit for 10-30 minutes
- RINSE: Using a water pressure rinse, entirely remove cleaner and debris
- DISINFECT: Apply no-rinse KleenGrow to disinfect for long lasting control
