Trusted Support For Food & Beverage Facilities

Industrial Cleaning for Food Production Facilities in the US & Canada

BlueWater helps food processors, packers, and cold storage facilities manage residues, allergens, and environmental hits with industrial cleaning that supports HACCP plans, SSOPs, and GFSI level audits from programs such as SQF, BRCGS, and FSSC 22000.

Sanitation, Production, & Packaging Areas

We clean floors, walls, ceilings, drains, and structural steel in processing and packaging rooms to control harborage, reduce environmental impacts, and maintain surrounding zones in an audit-ready state.

Equipment, Lines, & Conveyors

Technicians clean mixers, conveyors, ovens, fillers, tanks, and freezers to remove protein, sugar, and oil buildup so equipment supports PM work and runs reliably between sanitation cycles.

Blasting & Vacuuming

Hydroblasting, CO₂ blasting, and industrial wet/dry vacuuming remove overspray, dust, and product from pits, overheads, and support areas. These methods limit water use and help protect nearby packaging and controls.

Maintain Safer Food Production Environments

Experienced Industrial Cleaning For Food Facilities

Food plants juggle zero-tolerance zones, tight sanitation windows, and frequent regulatory and customer audits. BlueWater plans work around sanitation schedules, pre-op inspections, and changeovers, so deep cleaning supports throughput instead of cutting into runtime.

Typical areas we help manage include:

  • Mixing, batching, and packaging rooms, including raw and RTE operations
  • Coolers, freezers, docks, and loadout zones tied to cold chain performance
  • Drains, trenches, pits, and utility spaces where pathogens can harbor
  • Overheads, structural steel, and ventilation above food contact and packaging zones

The outcome: cleaner, safer facilities that are ready for USDA or FDA inspections, customer audits, and third-party food safety programs connected to key retail and foodservice accounts.

FAQs About Industrial Cleaning in the Food Industry

BlueWater Environmental is based in Romulus, Michigan, and serves food production facilities across the United States and Canada. Crews support major food and beverage corridors, including the Midwest, Great Lakes, and other key processing regions.

We work with meat and poultry plants, bakeries, snack and confectionery facilities, dairy and beverage sites, RTE meal and pet food operations, and cold storage networks. For multi-site operators, we coordinate projects across multiple plants, aligning work with sanitation windows, production changeovers, and planned shutdowns, ensuring methods and documentation remain consistent from site to site.

Food safety and compliance requirements guide every project. Before work begins, we review site rules, allergen controls, zoning maps, and regulatory frameworks to make sure our methods align with your programs.

Key practices include:

  • Coordinating with quality, sanitation, and EHS teams and reviewing HACCP and environmental monitoring plans
  • Using methods that limit overspray, aerosols, and uncontrolled residues in production areas
  • Isolating work zones, drains, and equipment to protect food contact and packaging surfaces and prevent allergen cross-contact
  • Documenting work, materials, and waste handling in formats that support USDA, FDA, and customer audit expectations

Our approach helps maintain clean, verifiable conditions across the facility while supporting both regulatory and customer-driven food safety programs.

Yes. BlueWater plans cleaning around your sanitation cycles, production shifts, and peak seasons. Projects can be scheduled during third-shift sanitation, planned outages, weekends, annual deep clean shutdowns, or off-shift hours.

Before work starts, we review process flows, CIP and COP practices, and maintenance plans. Supervisors complete job hazard analyses, coordinate permits, and confirm lockout and tagout steps with your team. This planning helps control risk, limit downtime, and keep cleaning aligned with production goals and your compliance calendar.
