Today, food processors face the dual challenge of achieving sustainability goals and guaranteeing product safety. 

Uniforms designed for food safety are a vital part of every food processing program, helping prevent contamination and streamline audits.

Ready-to-eat (RTE) meals and meal kits continue to move from a convenience option to an everyday staple. 

Contaminants don't belong in your food. Choosing the wrong X-ray detector costs you time, money, and reputation. Here's six key factors to consider before selecting one for your production line.

With warmer weather comes increased pest pressures, threatening flock health and food safety in pre-harvest poultry operations. Insects and rodents act as vectors for pathogens, making robust integrated pest management, complemented by effective chemical control, essential to reducing contamination risks.

Microbial issues can be a serious problem. From recalls to reputational damage, the more you know, the more prepared you will be. Get the expert knowledge you need from IFC.

Most food manufacturers know that documentation matters. Few have stopped to calculate what poor documentation is costing them—in time, in audit exposure, and in the operational intelligence they can't yet use.

Food manufacturers have long understood that training underpins food safety. Yet despite decades of effort and increasing regulatory pressure, many organizations still struggle to translate training into consistent on-the-floor behaviors.

Unlike many other foodborne pathogens, Listeria can both survive and grow at refrigeration temperatures. This ability, along with the risk of cross-contamination to other foods and surfaces, contributes to its persistence in food processing environments and makes it a significant concern for food safety.

Mounting evidence about the health effects, persistence, and bioaccumulation of PFAS has led to public and regulatory scrutiny that brings important implications for food and beverage producers. Begin integrating "forever chemicals" into your risk governance frameworks now to protect your business in the long-term.

As the EU moves to meet goals set for climate neutrality and achieve a circular economy, EU Regulation 2025/40 dictates rules and procedures to reduce packaging waste, without causing adverse risk to the consumer.
