Machine Washing And Decontamination For Australia

In the first quarter of 2012 the Australian Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) ordered the re-export of eight (8) consignments of machinery form Australia due to excessive contamination. This is the same number of re-exports ordered in the whole of 2011.

DAFF Biosecurity is seeing an increasing number of imported machines with high levels of Biosecurity Risk Material (BRM). Used machinery can pose a high biosecurity risk if it is contaminated with BRM such as soil, animal or plant material. If machinery arrives in a heavily contaminated state, DAFF Biosecurity can order the machine to be exported from Australia at the Importer’s or Owner’s expense.
