Measuring Technology for quality and compliance in food industry

Food is one of those few commodities where customers demand safety along with quality.

This throws the restaurateurs and food business operators into the enormous challenge of serving safe & quality food which are compliant to numerous food norms regulated by bodies like HACCP, and at the same time manage their operational procedures economically.

Crucial measurements at each stage in the process chain.

Transport:

Temperature monitoring and quality data documentation in the transport of foods is extremely critical. Some foods have a certain refrigeration requirement in transport, which should not be interrupted. With testo's transport data loggers, you can monitor every step of the cold chain. The loggers travel in freight and loading rooms, monitoring temperatures during the transport of sensitive goods. At their destination, you see briefly whether the configured limit values have been adhered to.

Recommended measuring instrument: Transport data logger testo 184

• USB data loggers for measurements during transport
• Immediate creation of a PDF report directly after connection to a computer 
• Transport monitoring in compliance with GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, HACCP and EN 12830

Incoming Goods: 

This is where foods pass over into the responsibility of the receiver, whether, it's a supermarket, a restaurant, a retailer, etc, where he has to be able to rely on receiving and processing only impeccable goods. Immediately after the supplier's arrival, the spot temperature checks are done either directly on the loading platform or in the delivery vehicle using portable temperature measuring instruments which measure temperature either without contact by infrared, or with surface or penetration probes.

Recommended measuring instrument: The penetration infrared thermometer testo 104-IR
