Systemised food safety

Efficient production and digital control

The availability of a wide range of food types is an essential cornerstone of modern life. For each of us, food and drink are a source of satisfaction, health and well-being. The food production industry, however, is confronted by increasingly complex and at the same time constantly evolving and changing demands, whether from government regulations, the impacts of digitalisation or changing consumer preferences. Food and beverage producers must, therefore, find the right balance between strict hygiene requirements and the pressure to reduce costs and optimise processes.

Food safety and hygiene are of course top priorities for the food and beverage industry, as consumers rightly expect that the products they choose meet the highest quality and safety standards.

Although the use of stainless steel enclosures is common practice in the industry, they often can still carry an overlooked risk of contamination. Hygienic Design enclosures are a smarter alternative to ensure complete cleanliness in hygiene-sensitive processes.

Meanwhile, using smart climate control solutions to reduce energy consumption is a decisive factor in the industry’s efforts to save not only costs but also minimise ecological damage and its environmental footprint.

As manufacturers face up to the challenges of Industry 4.0 as well as battle to remain competitive, high-performance control system and network enclosures, in combination with innovative IT solutions, play a pivotal role.

Rittal offers the food and drinks industry a made-to-measure customer-specific range of enclosures for all hygiene zones, including solutions for low-carbon production. These technologically advanced system solutions are designed to meet all current standards, regulations, directives and guidelines, and enable highly efficient, hygiene-compliant production.
