Halal is more than just how an animal is treated/slaughtered. That's a big part of it, but there's ethics beyond food. And of course there's interpretation so we'll see variations in meaning from different cultures and people.

They have to use separate equipment for all halal foods than non-halal. They have to use special cleaning supplies that are compliant and have no non-Halal ingredients.
You just defined the reason for asking the question without in any way answering it...
It's cleaned with different chemicals
How are they different? It's halal brand soap and that's the difference?
"How is halal stuff done differently?"
"Oh, you have to do it differently." / “it's cleaned with different chemicals."
.... Neat. You can tell it's different by how it is... I guess.
I mean, not for a lot of food production. We had Halal cert at our grain mill and a few other places I've worked at, and we never treated the food differently. Same with Kosher. They just send someone out to extort your business for certificate renewal.
You're supposed to. If they don't they are lying to their customers. They don't want it to touch the grills that were used for pork etc.
Grain mills don't usually have things touching pork though
I thought halal was just bleeding out an animal while the heart still beats, praying for it?
Is there actually different rituals for the equipment as well?
