Ask one of your accounts what their drain sanitation protocol is.

There's a good chance they don't have one.

Drains are an overlooked part of many institutional and hospitality sanitation programs, even though biofilm can build up inside the drain and p-trap.

For distributors, that leaves a gap you can help your accounts address.

On November 3, we're hosting a 30-minute webinar on drain sanitation. We'll walk through the research, why common approaches fall short, and how to bring a drain sanitation solution into the accounts you're already serving.

The link to register is in the comments.

Think about the cleaning programs your customers have in place.

Floors, counters, restrooms and food prep areas all have defined procedures. But ask what the procedure is for the drains and the answer gets a lot less clear.

Pouring leftover chemistry down the drain is common. A defined drain sanitation protocol isn't.

That matters because biofilm can build up inside drains and p-traps, where routine surface cleaning doesn't reach it.

Next time you're talking sanitation with an account, ask what their drain protocol looks like. The answer might surprise you.

Some programs look like full coverage. It takes an expert eye to spot the difference between what looks right and what actually works.

Fall migration is underway, and it is one of the highest risk times of year for avian influenza on farms.

Wild birds can carry the virus without looking sick. It can then reach a farm through shared water, feed, clothing, or equipment. That is why the points where people and vehicles enter matter so much.

Every operation builds its biosecurity program differently, but the goal is the same: keep pathogens and bacteria from getting in.

From boots and tires to fogging an entire room, here is how FOAMit works from the ground up. Take a look at the video and see how we can help out on the farm.

What does your entry protocol look like this season?

Fall in Michigan is in full swing, and we are loving every minute of it. 🍂

We may be biased, but we think our FOAMit jugs were made for this time of year.

Whatever the weather looks like where you are today, we hope you're finding something to enjoy about the season. We'd love to hear what fall looks like from your corner of the world.

When every second counts, the last thing you need is hunting for the right container, dealing with the mess from leaky fittings, and running blind on chemical levels.

FOAMit chemical jugs are built for the pace of a real sanitation program. See your levels at a glance through the translucent body. Grab the right chemical instantly with color coding options. Pour cleanly with the wide mouth design. And swap without the mess thanks to a double check suction fitting that eliminates leaking.

Oh, and they're built to last. These things are tough.

Need a locking cap to keep product secured? We've got that too.

The biggest sanitation lie you'll see is "one size fits all."

It rarely does.

Too many facilities build their footwear sanitation program around their equipment, instead of finding equipment that fits their existing operation.

Some facilities need a permanent station. Others need something they can move between zones. Some want a boot scrubber built in. Others are working in tight spaces where a smaller footprint matters more. And we haven't even started talking about utility constraints.

Most equipment makes you compromise on at least one of those things.

The SS4 doesn't.

It comes in configurations built around how your facility actually operates.

Stop looking for the one size that fits all and start looking for what works best for your team.

There's only one thing worse than cleaning a chemical drum...

Cleaning a chemical tote.

Ask anyone who's cleaned one by hand. It's awkward, takes too long, and you're never fully confident it's done right.

Not to mention the wasted water and potential safety risks that come with it.

If you're running FOAMit's automated Drum Rinse System (DRS), there's a tote rinsing attachment that works right off the same unit.

A footwear sanitation program can be failing quietly and still look like it's working.

The mat gets swapped, the footbath gets refilled, and there's a procedure on file somewhere. That can all be true and the program can still have problems: wrong placement, inconsistent chemistry, people skipping it when the line is moving fast.

See the four things a footwear sanitation program needs to be truly successful.

Most footwear sanitation systems fall short because of gaps in placement, soil management, or consistency. Here's the framework for building one that holds up.

Spray. Wipe. Move on. For anyone running sanitation in food service, hospitality, or institutional facilities, that is just the pace of the job.

But there is one piece of the process that is easy to overlook: most disinfectants need a specific amount of time to stay wet on a surface before they can fully do their job. That window is called contact time.

Our latest blog breaks down what contact time means, why it can get squeezed in real-world workflows, and how a small change in application method can help your chemistry finish the job without adding steps for your team.

Is your chemistry actually working? Contact time is the most forgotten rule in sanitation and the difference between looking clean and actually being clean.
