XyRex© U500 is designed specifically to control the rapid increase of bacteria counts found in the fish belly-cavity immediately after capture and slaughter. By controlling the bacterial levels, the quality, freshness, shelf life and prices of the catch can be improved.

XyRex© U500 is formulated for application in the fish handling water during the initial fish preparation and gutting treatment prior to fish icing.

XyRex© U500 is specifically formulated for application through a dosing unit linked to the flow rate of deck pump or water system feeding the gutting station in order to control the concentration. It is a highly concentrated product and is normally dosed to the water at the rate of 4000:1.

The presence of XyRex© U500 will also act as a background sanitiser to control the growth of degrading bacteria and reduce malodours in any areas where fish or fish products are being stored, washed, treated or processed. It will also assist in keeping bacterial levels down to an acceptable level and help to reduce the use of other more harmful and hazardous cleaning chemicals.

No residues will be left on the fish treated with XyRex© U500.

XyRex© U500 will assist in maintaining a most suitable and hygienic environment for the treatment, storage, shelf life and handling of fish and help provide a higher quality product.

XyRex© U500 also benefits from being classified as a non-hazardous product and therefore has no special handling or storage requirements unlike similar products in the market place.
