ProvaStep by Sterilex – Innovative Dry Floor Disinfection for Food & Beverage
ProvaStep is an innovative dry floor disinfectant granule system designed specifically for food and beverage manufacturing environments. Developed by Sterilex, ProvaStep provides an additional layer of protection against cross-contamination by enabling floors and high-traffic areas to be disinfected during production and between scheduled deep cleans.
Unlike conventional liquid floor disinfectants, ProvaStep uses small blue granules requiring minimal water for activation, helping food manufacturers reduce water and chemical consumption while maintaining effective hygiene practices.
Passes: EN1276 & EN13697
Available in 25kgs
We can recommend suitable applicators from handheld shakers, manual wind hand spreader, cordless battery spreader, gravity drop spreader, pull along spreader.

Maintaining hygienic floors is a critical part of food factory hygiene. High-footfall areas, production entrances, chiller floors and other difficult-to-clean locations can contribute to the movement of bacteria throughout a facility.
ProvaStep can be incorporated into routine and weekly hygiene programmes to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination and support a more efficient, sustainable approach to floor disinfection.
The dry granular formulation is particularly suited to food production environments where traditional liquid disinfectants can require significant quantities of water, chemical and labour.
ProvaStep uses a dry granular formulation that requires minimal water for activation. Once activated, the granules provide disinfecting action across the treated surface.
The small granule size helps the product reach gaps, joints and other small areas where bacteria can potentially remain. Its residual benefits can provide an additional layer of protection between more intensive deep-cleaning procedures.
The distinctive blue colour also makes the granules readily identifiable, which is particularly useful within food manufacturing environments where preventing accidental confusion with food ingredients is essential.
Cross-contamination remains an important consideration in food manufacturing, particularly in areas with heavy pedestrian traffic and movement between different zones.
Using ProvaStep as part of a structured floor hygiene programme can provide an additional control measure between deep cleans. Its application to entrances, high-traffic routes and other identified risk areas can help support a broader strategy for controlling the movement of contamination.

Our team can advise on the most appropriate application equipment for your facility, application area and hygiene requirements.
ProvaStep can be used across a variety of food manufacturing and processing environments where maintaining hygienic floors is essential.
ProvaStep can be considered for a wide range of food and beverage processing environments, including:
ProvaStep should be incorporated into a documented site hygiene programme and used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the facility's risk assessment.
Apply ProvaStep to areas experiencing frequent pedestrian movement to help reduce the transfer of contamination around the production environment.
Production entrances can be treated as part of an ongoing hygiene programme, helping to address contamination introduced through footwear and foot traffic.
ProvaStep is suitable for use on chiller floors where maintaining effective hygiene between routine deep cleans can be particularly important.
The product can form part of a wider environmental hygiene strategy within food and beverage manufacturing facilities, supporting routine floor sanitation procedures.
For isolated areas requiring additional attention, ProvaStep can be applied as a targeted dry disinfectant solution without the need to wet-clean the entire floor.
Suitable spreading equipment can be used to distribute the granules efficiently across larger floor areas, helping improve consistency and operational efficiency.
Traditional liquid floor disinfection can require substantial amounts of water and chemical, as well as additional time for application and drying.
ProvaStep provides an alternative dry granular approach that can help food manufacturers:
Reduce water consumption: Minimal water is required to activate the product.
Reduce chemical usage: The dry formulation can reduce reliance on conventional liquid floor disinfectants.
Improve operational efficiency: ProvaStep can be incorporated into hygiene routines without necessarily requiring the same level of wet application associated with conventional floor disinfection.
Support sustainability objectives: Reducing water and chemical requirements can contribute towards broader environmental and resource-efficiency targets.
Extend protection between deep cleans: Residual benefits can provide an additional layer of protection during production and between scheduled deep-cleaning activities.
ProvaStep is a dry granular floor disinfectant technology from Sterilex, developed for food and beverage manufacturing environments. The blue granules require minimal water for activation and can be used on floors as part of a routine hygiene programme.
ProvaStep is designed for floor disinfection, including high-footfall areas, production entrances, chiller floors, spot-treatment areas and larger floor surfaces within food and beverage manufacturing facilities.
ProvaStep is designed to be incorporated into hygiene programmes during production where appropriate. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions, site procedures and risk assessment regarding application and access to treated areas.
Yes. ProvaStep requires minimal water to activate, providing a dry alternative to conventional liquid disinfectant application.
ProvaStep contains small blue granules, making them readily distinguishable from food ingredients.
ProvaStep is available in 25 kg packs.
ProvaStep passes EN 1276 and EN 13697.
ProvaStep is designed to provide an additional layer of floor hygiene protection and help mitigate the risk associated with bacteria such as Listeria. It should be used as part of a comprehensive environmental hygiene and food safety programme rather than as a standalone control.
We can recommend handheld shakers, manual wind hand spreaders, cordless battery spreaders, gravity drop spreaders and pull-along spreaders depending on the application.
Yes. ProvaStep can be used for both spot applications and larger floor areas, with mechanical spreading options available to help improve application efficiency.
ProvaStep should be viewed as an additional floor disinfection measure rather than a replacement for a facility's established deep-cleaning programme. It can help provide additional protection between deep cleans.
Contact our team to discuss your application, floor areas, hygiene programme and preferred application method. We can also advise on suitable ProvaStep spreading equipment.
If you are looking for an innovative dry floor disinfectant for food manufacturing, ProvaStep provides a practical alternative to conventional liquid floor disinfection.
With minimal water activation, distinctive blue granules, residual benefits and multiple application options, ProvaStep can help food and beverage manufacturers strengthen floor hygiene while supporting water reduction, operational efficiency and sustainability objectives.
