Key Technologies for Food Safety

Fluorescence Imaging Technology for Food Safety

Our advanced fluorescence imaging technology provides real-time visualization of surface contamination that is invisible to the naked eye, enabling targeted decontamination in food processing environments.

Biofilm Detection

Instantly identify biofilm formation on food contact surfaces, processing equipment, and in hard-to-reach areas. Biofilms can harbor pathogens like Listeria monocytogenes that persist even after standard cleaning procedures and are a major source of cross-contamination in food facilities.

Organic Residue Visualization

Detect organic residues from food processing that can serve as nutrient sources for microbial growth. Our technology can identify protein, fat, and carbohydrate residues on surfaces throughout the production environment, enabling targeted cleaning and sanitation.

Sanitation Verification

Confirm the effectiveness of cleaning and sanitation procedures through before-and-after imaging. This provides objective evidence of cleaning success and helps optimize sanitation protocols for maximum efficiency and pathogen reduction, supporting HACCP and FSMA compliance.

Allergen Cross-Contamination Prevention

Identify potential allergen cross-contamination points by visualizing residues on shared equipment or surfaces. This helps food processors implement effective allergen control programs and protect consumers with food allergies.

FTIR Gas Detection Technology for Food Safety

Our FTIR gas detection technology provides comprehensive analysis of airborne contaminants in food processing and storage environments, ensuring product quality and worker safety.

Ammonia Leak Detection

Detect and measure ammonia (NH3) leaks from refrigeration systems in cold storage facilities and processing plants. Early detection of ammonia leaks is critical for preventing product contamination and ensuring worker safety.

Ethylene Monitoring

Monitor ethylene gas levels in fruit and vegetable storage areas. Ethylene is a natural ripening agent, and controlling its concentration can help extend the shelf life of produce and reduce spoilage.

Sanitizer & Fumigant Monitoring

Measure airborne concentrations of sanitizers (e.g., peracetic acid, chlorine dioxide) and fumigants used in food processing facilities. This ensures that these chemicals are used effectively and safely, without posing risks to workers or leaving harmful residues on products.

Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) Gas Analysis

Verify the gas composition (e.g., CO2, N2, O2) in modified atmosphere packaging to ensure product quality and extend shelf life. Our technology provides rapid and accurate analysis of gas mixtures used in MAP applications.

FLIR Thermal Imaging Technology for Food Safety

Our FLIR thermal imaging technology provides critical insights by visualizing temperature differences, helping to identify potential food safety hazards and optimize processing conditions.

Cold Chain Monitoring

Verify temperature consistency in refrigerated storage, transportation, and display units. Thermal imaging can quickly identify hot spots or areas where temperatures are out of specification, helping to prevent microbial growth and ensure product safety.

Equipment Performance & Maintenance

Monitor the temperature of processing equipment, such as ovens, fryers, and motors, to detect overheating components or inefficiencies. This helps prevent equipment failure, optimize energy use, and ensure consistent product quality.

Moisture Detection in Processing Environments

Identify hidden moisture in walls, ceilings, and floors of food processing facilities that can lead to mold growth and contamination. Early detection of moisture issues helps maintain a hygienic environment and prevent structural damage.

Seal Integrity Inspection

Inspect the integrity of seals on packaged food products by detecting temperature differences caused by leaks. This helps ensure that packaging is airtight and protects products from contamination and spoilage.

Enviro DF-200 Decontamination for Food Safety

Our Enviro DF-200 decontamination solution provides broad-spectrum efficacy against foodborne pathogens, ensuring a safe and hygienic environment in food processing and manufacturing facilities.

Pathogen Elimination (Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli)
