Using Temperature Indicator Labels for HACCP Compliance in Food Manufacturing

HACCP — Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points — is the internationally recognised framework for managing food safety through the systematic identification, assessment, and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards throughout the food production process. At the heart of any HACCP plan are the Critical Control Points (CCPs): the specific stages in the process where control is essential to prevent, eliminate, or reduce a food safety hazard to an acceptable level. For the vast majo

Verifying Laundry Wash Temperatures with LaundryStrip Temperature Indicator Labels

In food manufacturing, healthcare, and other regulated environments, washing protective clothing and workwear at the correct temperature is not just a hygiene preference — it is a legal and regulatory requirement. Pathogens including Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, and Staphylococcus aureus can survive on fabric at low wash temperatures, and inadequately laundered workwear is a recognised contamination vector in food production environments. The LaundryStrip temperature indicator label provides a

Time-Temperature Indicators for Batch Retort Processing of Canned and Bottled Food

Batch retort processing is the thermal sterilisation method at the heart of commercial canning and bottling. It is the process that gives tinned soups, canned fish, glass-jarred sauces, and bottled beverages their long ambient shelf life — and it is a process where the correct application of time-temperature indicators is both a product safety imperative and a regulatory requirement.
