    Hello Thomas,

    Would it be possible to let me know where may I find an official (i.e.: FDA,
    USDA) document that recommends 100-200 ppm chlorine for food contact
    surfaces?

    If there is someone else in the list that can help I would be very grateful.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello Tilak and Francisco,
    I usually recommend that, in footbaths, companies double the strength of
    sanitizer they use on food contact surfaces. 100-200ppm chlorine is
    recommended for food contact surfaces but 200-400ppm is a better working
    range for footbaths. Remember to monitor the concentration throughout the
    day and replenish as necessary.
