The SmartWash system, a revolutionary food wash enhancer developed by New Leaf Food Safety Solutions, was recognized on May 4 at United Fresh as the most innovative new product in the Food Safety category.

Now installed in standard wash lines at leafy greens and vegetable processing plants across the U.S. and in Mexico, SmartWash guarantees that zero cross contamination can occur during the wash process, thus eliminating the criteria for a food outbreak.
