Seafood is the glamour
food of the next decade. Consumers have discovered the taste and
health benefits of a diet that includes frequent use of seafood main dishes
and appetizers. This has lead to greater demand, a greater level of
processing and an increased consumer demand for guarantees of freshness and
wholesomeness of their seafood purchases. CheckPoint® is now widely
used for seafood products for compliance with HACCP programs and for shelf
life assurance.
The main areas for the
use of temperature labels in seafood are:
Protection
against toxin formation in ROP* minimally processed and processed
items
Freshness assurance
(cold chain tracking) for restaurants and commissary operations
Case ready smoked
or highly processed products
Live shellfish in
shipment and distribution that are susceptible to food borne
pathogens
Most applications are best served by our L series labels.
Frozen applications where there will be some thaw and display at the
retail outlet require B series labels. Behind the counter
shipping and storage of non-ROP products are best served by our CheckPoint®
III Type EH labels.
Please call us to discuss the specifics of your application.
We are experts in designing temperature label solutions that
maximize product quality and safety without sacrificing full shelf
extension benefits. |
