WHY BRITE BELT
Thirty years of use in facilities that can't afford to get it wrong.
Brite Belt has been the choice of food processors, USDA-inspected facilities, and produce operations since before HACCP compliance was federally required. Here's the record.
Used before HACCP existed
Brite Belt was running in USDA/FSIS-inspected facilities in 1995 — four years before the federal HACCP mandate took effect.

Third-party field data shows a direct correlation between proper Brite Belt use and ATP pass rates in active sanitation programs.
LGMA-recommended tool

1995 — SOUTH GATE, CALIFORNIA
Proven in a USDA facility four years before HACCP was required.
Alpha Meat Packing — a USDA/FSIS-inspected multi-species facility — was running Brite Belt scrubber units and verifying results with ATP testing four years before HACCP compliance was federally required. The story was featured on the cover of Meat Processing magazine in September 1995.
Steve Sayer, the plant's sanitation director at the time, is now a GFSI-credentialed auditor certified in BRC and FSSC 22000. He still talks about it.
We were already miles ahead of the pack.

THE PRODUCT
Designed once. Refined over three decades.
The original Brite Belt scrubber unit was invented to solve a problem that hadn't been solved — continuous belt cleaning during sanitation without adding labour or interrupting operations. The BRICK scrubber, introduced in 2016, extended that capability to belt widths from 4″ to 96″.
Both units are manufactured in the USA. Both use the same core principle that made the original work in 1995.
