Digital shelf-life for pork products
Move from destructive lab and sensory testing to continuous freshness data in a digital platform.
The Market
Fresh and ready-to-eat pork products face confinement odor, variable micro counts, and long supply chains.
From blown packs, discolouration and off-odors. Further more, it is difficult to guarantee cold-chain integrity in international fresh supply-chains, where the impact of temperature on spoilage is critical.
