Disposable hoods for the food industry:
Always hygienic on the go

Like on the presentation plate – this applies more to food than to other products. The requirements are high, the working conditions strict. And the customers are critical. Regardless of whether it is about the crunchy sausage for in between or spicy, fragrant game in a homemade sauce. No hair, no flakes may be found in the sauce. Disposable hoods are extremely practical in this regard and the selection should not be underestimated! From the type to the color, you decide how you and / or your employees look. Which characteristics are important to you? We will introduce you to the possibilities.

First things first: disposable hoods are part of disposable clothing and can therefore be put on and taken off quickly. Dry cleaning? Storage after use? Neither plays a role: no time is wasted, the disposable hoods can be disposed of quickly and easily.

Learn about all the other benefits of disposable hoods.

• Food protection: Not every customer is always looking for the fly in the ointment. But those who actually find it are anything but thrilled. For you, this could not only mean one less customer, but also a loss of image or other consequences. Since hairs and flakes in particular can come off at any time, disposable hoods protect your food.
• Avoidance of cross-contamination: How hygienic does it have to be? For different departments it is worthwhile to have your own disposable hoods, which are only worn within the specific area. When changing to another department, a new disposable hood must be provided. The upside? Possible bacteria and viruses remain in the department, cross-contamination is thus avoided. And the whole thing without any real extra effort.
• Wide range of applications: One hood, numerous application sites. Disposable protection such as astro hoods meet the hygiene regulations of many areas, including food processing or handling equipment. Smaller butcheries or food-producing companies in particular do not need a great variety of products to be able to work in accordance with the regulations.
• Food safe: What if a disposable hood comes into contact with food? Usually this is not a big deal, as long as the hood has not been worn before. Our hoods comply with the relevant regulations and are allowed to come into contact with the food for a short period of time.
• Flexibility with any hairstyle: long hair or big curly head? For astro hoods, the hair structure and length does not matter. Thanks to the elastic material texture, every hairstyle finds enough space under the hood.
• High wearing comfort: Walking around all day with a cap on your head can be quite exhausting. This is not the case with our astro hoods: an elastic band or similar means securely fixes the disposable hood to the head. No slipping. And thanks to the thin material for single use, the hood is very light.
• Prevention of heat accumulation: The scalp is also pleased with the light, air-permeable mesh structure. Despite long periods of wear, the typical perspiration that caps or other head protection cause is prevented. The skin can continue to breathe, heat build-up is prevented and comfort is once again increased.
• Flexibility for every head type: Depending on the model, the fixation of the disposable hood can be a little different. Nevertheless, the following applies: The necessary protection is only given when the hood closes tightly around the face. Then no single hair, no skin flake can make its way out. Most hoods are flexible in size to fit the wearer.

What color would you like?

Probably the biggest choice you get is in colors. Depending on the model, Ehlert offers you more than just the standard red, green, yellow, blue and white. Perfect, therefore, if you want to separate individual departments by colour.

For good reason: Different colours separate areas that should not be mixed with each other. Above all, a uniform colour system prevents cross-contamination and also visibly demarcates the tasks of the individual employees. For example, give kitchen, production, cleaning and visitors different colors. This designation should, of course, be communicated with each department. Once established, each employee can be quickly and easily assigned.

Little hint: Blue is not found in any natural food. The perfect colour for disposable clothing of any kind. If an unused astro hood falls into the wrong pot, it can be found again quickly.

Systematic enjoyment – that is also our motto, our goal for your food business. That is why we offer them not only a wide range of colors. Get to know all the advantages of our in-house products.

PP disposable hoods: The right choice of material

Plastic as disposable clothing often makes the skin sweat quickly and in many cases is even harmful to health. For our disposable hoods we have therefore chosen the best form of this material: polypropylene. Products made of PP do not contain any harmful plasticizers, which distinguishes them from conventional plastic alternatives. Another advantage is its elasticity: even at temperatures around zero degrees, the disposable hoods remain flexible. At the refrigerated counters or in cold stores a definite plus.

If you care about the environment, PP is also the right choice: unlike other types of plastic, this material is easier to recycle.
