The SonoSteam^® Technology

SonoSteam is a combined thermal and ultrasound treatment technology, where the effect of hot steam and high power ultrasound is used in conjunction. The hot steam causes the microbial elimination effect, while the ultrasound causes an enhanced steam efficacy.

The process will be stopped before the heat has penetrated below the product surface. SonoSteam is therefore efficient against surface located microorganisms.

These confined and focused effects make the SonoSteam technology highly useful for inactivation of microorganisms on very heat sensitive organic materials, where heat related sensory and physiological changes are unacceptable.
