Apetito UK improves pathogen testing with VIDAS® KUBE™

apetito UK is a leading manufacturer of frozen pre-packed meals, primarily serving the healthcare sector. Known globally for their specialised soft diet range, apetito places significant importance on food safety and product quality. 

Historically, apetito has relied on the legacy VIDAS® 30 system for routine pathogen presence/absence testing, including Salmonella and Listeria. With the end-of-support for older VIDAS® platforms scheduled for 2031, the team needed a reliable, future-proof replacement capable of handling their demanding workflow of 100 to 120 samples per day, with up to 30% requiring VIDAS® assays.

“If we had an issue with the VIDAS® 30, the whole unit could be out of action. Now, we can isolate a single KUBE and still use the others. That’s absolutely amazing.” Austin Allen, Lab Supervisor at apetito UK for 22 years.
