The Food Industry Is At A Turning Point
The food industry is facing significant challenges that demand a new approach to safety and quality. As consumer demands evolve, processors must tackle rising non-quality costs, recent recalls, stricter safety regulations, and industry digitalization, all within a complex macro-economic environment marked by supply chain disruptions and inflation.
Additionally, the industry must address consumer trends like the demand for plant-based products, health and well-being, and transparency through clean labels. With looming sustainability challenges, including the need to produce 60% more food by 2050, it's crucial for food manufacturers to embrace innovative technologies and data sciences to improve productivity, reduce waste, and lower their carbon footprint.

As our portfolio has grown through R&D and acquisition, we have consistently raised our bar to ensure we are providing the right solutions to the industries that need them most.
We serve multiple segments in the food manufacturing sector, ensuring that we have a custom approach and deep understanding of the unique needs of each industry.
Applications
How To Be "In Control" And Anticipate Risks
At bioMérieux, we know that reliable data is critical to any food production operation. How that data flows between the production floor and the laboratory can have a profound impact on how and when decisions are made, how risk is mitigated, and how profits and efficiencies are maximized.
With our Augmented Diagnostics approach, we help turn test results and data into actionable insights, providing value across every aspect of food safety testing.
Our Suite Of Cutting-Edge Solutions
From Test Results To Actionable Insights
Our product range reflects our comprehensive Augmented Diagnostics approach to improving food quality and safety. We use traditional core microbiology solutions alongside bioinformatics, data science, genomics, diagnostic innovation, and predictive modeling to move the industry from detecting and responding to issues to actively preventing them.
