The invention provides a method of sterilizing products and a method of packaging them, which little denature of the products, little concern with rusting or corrosion of the equipment, permit a safe working environment, and can shorten the treatment time, and this invention relates to a method of sterilizing products by adding hydrochloric acid to water not containing sodium chloride, passing the resulting fluid to a diaphragm-less electrolytic bath, electrolyzing the fluid, collecting the electrolytic water, diluting the collected electrolytic water with water, and sterilizing products with both the diluted electrolytic water and ultraviolet radiation; and to a method of packaging products with packaging members sterilized by the above process.
