Environmental monitoring
Help prevent potential issues from leading to major problems.
Food safety and quality strategies are shifting due to an increased consumer awareness, impact of major recalls, changing regulations and international standards. Food testing has traditionally been focused on raw materials and finished product. Testing the food processing environment is a preventative approach that can assist you to identify and correct potential issues before they lead to a major problem or recall.
A comprehensive resource for environmental monitoring in the food and beverage industry has been developed in partnership with Cornell University and other industry experts. This environmental monitoring handbook provides guidance on building and implementing a holistic program based on industry practices and a scientific approach.
