Sterilizers – Professional Tool Disinfection for Gastronomy and the Meat Industry
A sterilizer is the heart of the hygiene system in every professional kitchen, meat plant, or slaughterhouse. Faced with strict sanitary standards (HACCP) and veterinary inspections, the effective elimination of microorganisms from work tools is not a choice, but a necessity. At Wammashop.pl, we do not accept half-measures – we offer equipment that guarantees microbiological cleanliness, essential for food safety and consumer health.
Types of Sterilizers – Choose the Technology for Your Needs
Our offer includes devices differentiated by operating technology and throughput. Below is a breakdown to help you choose the right model for your facility's specifics.
Water Sterilizers – Classic Efficacy
This solution is based on simple and reliable physics: boiling water reaches every nook and cranny of the tool, eliminating 100% of microorganisms. This method is preferred by food technologists in large processing plants due to its uncompromising effectiveness. In our offer, you will find:
- Model WH091 – Compact sterilizer for 8 knives and 2 sharpening steels, great for small butcher shops and cutting sections.
- Model WH0912 – Increased capacity version for medium-sized processing points.
- Model WH092 – Specialized design with an immersion depth of 63 cm, dedicated to long slaughter knives.
- Model WH093 – Industrial giant for 50 long knives, created for large meat plants.
- Model WH094 – Device for special tasks: accommodates saws, axes, and cleavers.
- Model WH098 – The largest unit in the range, a "combine" for sterilizing the entire arsenal of tools: from knives and shears to metal mesh gloves.
Basket Sterilizers – Large-Scale Workflow Organization
When time and logistics matter, basket sterilizers are irreplaceable. They allow for the washing and scalding of entire batches of tools without the need to arrange them individually.
- WH096 – Water sterilizer holding 6 carriers (baskets) with knives, covered with a lid.
- WH0961 – Version handling up to 12 baskets simultaneously.
- WH0962 – High-performance model for 20 baskets, for the largest production lines.
- WH0963 – Variant dedicated to 10 baskets with a set of knives and sharpeners.
UV Sterilizers – Dry Disinfection
Ultraviolet technology is the ideal alternative where the use of water is problematic. UV-C radiation effectively destroys the DNA of bacteria and viruses. It is a clean, energy-saving method that does not generate steam.
- WH0990 – With a magnetic strip for 10 knives, a standard in gastronomy.
- WH09901 – Hybrid version with a strip and additional hooks.
- WH09902 – Model with hooks dedicated to gloves and sharpeners.
- WH0991 – Enlarged chamber for 20 knives or steels.
- WH0994 – Large unit with a system of strips and rods for various types of tools.
- WH0997 – UV cabinet with powerful capacity: up to 36 small or 18 large baskets.
Ozone Sterilizers – Gaseous Penetration
Ozone is one of the strongest oxidants known in nature. It reaches everywhere UV light cannot, and additionally neutralizes unpleasant odors.
- WH09901OZ – Ozonator for 10 knives and 4 gloves.
- WH0990OZ – Dedicated to long blades.
- WH0991OZ – Large ozone chamber for 20 tools.
- WH0992 – Advanced hybrid UV/OZONE model, combining the advantages of both technologies.
Sterilizing Cabinets – Complete Hygiene Centers
For facilities requiring mass disinfection of protective clothing and equipment, we offer freestanding cabinets.
- WH0998 – UV cabinet with a hook system for gloves and aprons.
- WH0998OZ – Variant utilizing ozone technology.
Why Do Professionals Choose Equipment from Wammashop?
Our devices are not disposable toys, but machines designed for continuous operation in difficult conditions of humidity and variable temperatures.
Steel That Lasts for Years
We rely on high-grade acid-resistant stainless steel. It is a material inert to food, resistant to aggressive cleaning chemicals and mechanical damage. Investing in solid steel pays off in the form of many years of failure-free operation.
Economy and Ecology
A modern plant must count costs. Our sterilizers feature thermal insulation and precise controllers that minimize heat loss (in water models) and power consumption (in UV/Ozone models). These are real savings on energy bills.
Safety First
Working with boiling water or UV radiation requires safeguards. Our devices have systems protecting against overheating ("heater protection"), automatic switches when doors are opened (UV models), and a design that prevents accidental burns.
Industrial Application in Practice
Meat Processing
In slaughterhouses and butcheries, a sterilizer is a barrier against Listeria or Salmonella. Water models (e.g., from the WH09 series) are the standard here due to the need to remove fat and protein at high temperatures.
Gastronomy
In restaurants, speed and aesthetics count. Wall-mounted UV sterilizers reign here – they take up little space, do not require water and sewage connections at every point, and effectively disinfect the chef's knives.
How to Wisely Choose a Sterilizer?
The purchase decision should be dictated by risk analysis and work specifics:
- What are you sterilizing? If it's axes and saws – choose large water models. If only knives – a smaller UV or water model is sufficient.
- Scale of operation: Count how many tools are in constant circulation. The device cannot be a production "bottleneck."
- Utilities: Check access to water and drainage. If absent in a given room, a UV or ozone sterilizer is the only solution.
Consumables and Accessories
The availability of spare parts is an asset appreciated after years. We offer full service support:
- Heaters and thermostats (WH09G, WH09TS) – The heart of water sterilizers.
- Metal inserts – Allow modifying the interior of the device for unusual tools.
- Hand disinfection stations (ET-WH234) – The perfect complement to a sanitary lock.
FAQ – Knowledge in a Nutshell
Sterilization vs. Disinfection – What's the Difference?
In colloquial language, these words are used interchangeably, but technically sterilization aims at total sterility (destruction of all forms of microorganisms, including spores), while disinfection reduces their number to a safe level. Our devices, while maintaining appropriate time and temperature procedures, allow achieving the highest hygienic standard.
Do UV lamps need to be replaced?
Yes, UV radiators have a specific lifespan. Even if they still emit light, they lose their biocidal properties over time. We recommend regular inspection and replacement according to the user manual to maintain process effectiveness.
