Commercial Food Sanitation (CFS), an Intralox company, is celebrating the opening of its first standalone training facility, CFS Institute North America, housed at the Intralox global headquarters in New Orleans, Louisiana.

CFS technical experts help food processors worldwide implement preventive programs that mitigate and prevent critical food safety challenges. CFS Institute North America is a part of a global network with training offered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands; São Paulo, Brazil; Shanghai, China; Monterrey, Mexico; and Melbourne, Australia. To date, CFS has trained over 5,300 participants at its global training centers.

It features three laboratories, providing real-life plant environments for training participants. Additional collaboration spaces in the facility enable learning and cross-functional collaboration among food manufacturing professionals in engineering, quality assurance, sanitation, and operations roles as they are educated on risk reduction, operational efficiency, and long-term food safety performance.
