Technical Bulletin: Temperature Indicator Labels for Climate-Resilient Transport and Cold Chain Monitoring
The global transport sector is facing a growing thermal management challenge. As climate change drives more frequent and more intense heatwaves across all major freight and passenger transport corridors, the temperatures experienced by temperature-sensitive goods, vehicle components, and transport infrastructure are increasing. Conventional monitoring approaches that were calibrated for historical climate conditions are increasingly being stressed by the new reality of extreme heat events — and

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

Protecting Wine Quality in Transit: Cold Chain Temperature Monitoring with Indicator Labels
Wine is one of the most temperature-sensitive products in the global food and beverage supply chain. From the moment a bottle leaves the winery, it is exposed to a journey through storage facilities, distribution hubs, freight forwarders, retail environments, and potentially international shipping — each step presenting opportunities for temperature exposure that can fundamentally alter the character and quality of the wine inside. A wine that arrives at a restaurant, retailer, or consumer in pe

Winery Sanitation: Using Temperature Indicator Labels to Verify Hot Water Cleaning
Sanitation is one of the most critical and technically demanding aspects of winery operations. The same warm, nutrient-rich, slightly acidic environment that supports yeast during fermentation is also hospitable to a range of spoilage microorganisms — Acetobacter, Lactobacillus, Brettanomyces, and wild yeasts — that can devastate wine quality if given the opportunity to establish themselves in processing equipment. Hot water cleaning, combined with appropriate chemical sanitisers, is the front l
