Disinfection locks as pioneers in modern palletizing systems
Intelligent and efficient disinfectionMaterial airlocks for disinfection – Before raw materials, goods, or load carriers can be introduced into hygiene areas, they must be disinfected. Liquid disinfectants or thermal disinfection processes are usually the only options. The environmental, health, and product-related impacts are always an unwelcome side effect.
The Baust material airlocks for disinfection offer a comfortable and effective solutionwhen it comes to the Minimization / elimination / inactivation of microorganisms such as bacteria and mold spores It works. And all without any burden on people, the environment, or the product.
Whether pallets, containers, or bulk packaging need to be handled, the Baust material airlock is the ideal solution. Its operating principle is confirmed by certified laboratories.
Areas of application for material airlocks for disinfection:
- Food industry
- Pharma industry
- High-hygiene areas
Information on the principle:
With the help of UVC rays Microorganisms such as bacteria, mold spores and germs are killed.
Thanks to the short-wavelength and high-energy UVC light, unwanted microorganisms can be destroyed. 99,9% (Laboratory confirmed) eliminate.
The effectiveness of this method is highly dependent on the distance of the light source to the contaminated surface and the duration of light exposure. Baust has optimized this.
UVC rays cannot penetrate materials and therefore have no effect on the material to be disinfected or its contents.
The human eye must be protected by preventing direct eye contact through the use of screens, privacy louvers, or similar aids.
The described principle is more cost-effective, more efficient and safer than the previously known disinfection spraying method.

who rely on Baust pallet changers
Disinfection airlocks are among the most modern and currently most popular technologies in goods logistics. Do you want to know how you can meet high hygiene standards for your goods with minimal effort? Material airlocks for pallets allow goods to be cleaned and disinfected automatically and effectively, which is crucial for production, storage, and delivery. Material airlocks are part of a comprehensive system with various functions. One of the latest features is the disinfection airlock from Baust.
Everything you need to know about disinfection locks with palletizing systems:
Baust disinfection material airlocks are developed according to a highly sophisticated principle. They can be installed as stand-alone solutions in production areas or in airlock rooms. For efficient and high-performance operation, integration into automated conveyor lines is also possible. The material airlock can be placed above existing conveyor technology or effectively supplemented with optionally available conveyor technology to enhance the material flow.
An ingenious system allows the pallets and their contents to be illuminated and thus disinfected from all sides. A rotating door system effectively blocks the UVC rays, preventing them from escaping.
What are disinfection locks?
The need for disinfection has increased significantly over the past two years. During the COVID-19 pandemic, disinfection is more important than ever in goods logistics, helping companies to sanitize their products. Therefore, cleaning and disinfecting goods that undergo extensive transport will remain an industry standard practice.
Baust has developed an efficient solution for product disinfection precisely for this purpose. Among their latest innovations is the disinfection sluice for pallets and goods. This is essentially a process station that functions as a disinfection booth, disinfecting the pallets along with their contents.
How does the disinfection lock work?
Product disinfection works using light waves. A typical procedure would be as follows:
- Your pallets will be placed in the disinfection chamber. This is done manually using a forklift or in combination with a fully automated system.
- In the airlock room, the entire pallet, including the load, is disinfected using UV-C light waves.
- The pallet can then be removed or leave the system via conveyor technology.
Baust chose disinfection using light waves because it represents a modern alternative to chemical or thermal disinfection. This involves so-called UV-C rays, which have been used particularly since the beginning of the Corona pandemic. UV-C disinfection kills not only bacteria and fungi within a few seconds, but even the coronavirus (https://www.bu.edu/neidl/2020/06/6004/).
Advantages of a disinfection lock:
- Easy compliance with hygiene standards
- Minimal effort: No tedious individual cleaning of goods.
- Time-saving: Automatic and effective disinfection of pallets
- Integration into palletizing systems / complete systems
- Disinfection is important for production, storage, and deliveries.
- Individual cleaning designs through modern engineering by Baust
How does the material gate integrate into your concept or palletizing system?
The material gate can be a stand-alone solution to complement your existing infrastructure. Alternatively, it can also be integrated into an existing conveyor/palletizing system. The concept allows for very simple and flexible integration. If no palletizing system yet exists, this entire system can be designed by Baust engineers according to your specific requirements.
Several well-known manufacturers are already convinced by Baust's technologies.
We recommend a free initial consultation to explain in detail the advantages of a customized design. We have already helped well-known clients achieve greater efficiency and reduced workload. Our services range from consulting, individual planning, and installation to employee training, maintenance, and support.
