Greenhouse Cleaning and Disinfection

High-quality greenhouse production relies on cleaning and disinfection. Greenhouse interiors, tools, trays, water systems and workers' boots can bring in or circulate pathogens. Once pathogens are inside, it's easy to contaminate crops, putting your plant, fruit, vegetable and mushroom production at risk. 

Ecolab experts can partner with you to help prevent pathogens from entering your greenhouse or control them if they're inside. Our greenhouse cleaning products and protocols can contribute to efficient production and maximum profitability.

Greenhouse Biosecurity

Biosecurity is an industry that's highly important for farming and horticulture. In a greenhouse, warm temperatures enhance the growing and diffusion opportunities for pathogens, and biosecurity helps prevent those pathogens from entering the greenhouse and circulating among crops.

Greenhouse Interior Disinfection

Crops aren't the only thing that need attention for good greenhouse production. For plants, fruits, vegetables and mushrooms to thrive, the greenhouse interior must be properly cleaned and disinfected. 

These areas are particularly important for nurturing a healthy growing environment:

  • Personal hygiene, including boots and clothes
  • Tool hygiene
  • Surfaces/barns
  • Water systems
