1. SAMPLING IS KEY TO PREVENTION

 

When deciding to release a product, numerous parameters are considered when it comes to sampling: representability, size of the sample, and time to result.

“THE RESULT OF THE ANALYSIS IS ARTICULATED EITHER AS A SUCCESS OR A FAILURE, BUT IT’S ALREADY TOO LATE BY THEN, THE CHALLENGE NOW LIES IN PROCURING THE INFORMATION BEFOREHAND…”

Emmanuel MALLO, VP Quality - Lactalis Group

2. MAINTAINING PEOPLE’S KNOW HOW

If we are to ensure food safety & quality without testing finished products, then the skills and knowledge of people need to be placed at the heart of the discussion to get as close as possible to process control.
