| Guest Column: U.S. Food Safety — Will Food Track-And-Trace Finally Take Off? | Some large agricultural companies have already embraced the idea of field-to-fork (or at least field-to-processing plant) traceability to limit the size of product recalls, protect brand image and, incidentally, safeguard the public. Many of these companies own or control the production or output in other countries and could, therefore, adopt a track-and-trace methodology for their local businesses without the need for local government regulation or cooperation.

| Case Study: Package Development | A customer is launching a new product in response to a market research study. The initial launch will be for a test market with 100,000 units produced. The packaging engineers are given a final "go" on the project with a lunch date scheduled in 3 months. Their goal is to develop a package to protect the oxygen sensitive product and provide a shelf-life of 90 days. By MOCON, Inc. | 03/04/2009 | 344.6 KB |
