Americans throw out billions of pounds of food every year because they falsely believe "sell-by" and "best-before" dates on package labels indicate food safety, according to a study published by Harvard Law School and the Natural Resources Defense Council, New York.
Picture the quality of your food products as a boat floating in the sea. On a perfect day, the sea would be completely calm and still, making predictions about the general safety and shelf life of these products relatively easy.
Ingersoll-Rand’s Climate Control Technologies sector introduced its new Environment Management System (EMS), an innovation that includes environmental sampling, consulting, products and services to ensure safer food environments and increased shelf across the cold chain.
