Import consignments are subject to strict biosecurity requirements to prevent the spread of pests and diseases. While chemical fumigation has long been a go-to solution, it’s not always the healthiest or most environmentally friendly option. Thankfully, heat treatment services offer a better way.
The Benefits of Heat Treatment Over Chemical Fumigation
Heat treatment uses controlled heat to eradicate pests from imported goods, eliminating the need for harmful fumigants and chemicals. By relying on temperature rather than toxins, heat treatment ensures that products remain free from chemical residues, which can pose risks to human health and the environment.
