Hygiene Verification

ATP Hygiene Monitoring Systems

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) bioluminescence monitoring systems for rapid, quantitative hygiene verification immediately after cleaning. ATP is present in all living organic matter — food residues, bacteria and biofilm. The system detects ATP on a surface using a swab and luminometer, returning a result in under 15 seconds that tells you objectively whether the surface is clean enough for production. Used as a post-cleaning verification step at critical contact surfaces, ATP monitoring provides the objective evidence your HACCP and IFS records require.

Key Features
Result TimeUnder 15 seconds
MethodBioluminescence (RLU reading)
Swab TypesSurface and water variants
Data LoggingBluetooth to PC or tablet software
LimitsConfigurable pass/fail thresholds

Pathogen Monitoring

Listeria Monitoring Systems

Dedicated Listeria monocytogenes environmental monitoring systems for food facilities where Listeria control is a critical food safety requirement — particularly ready-to-eat, chilled and minimally processed food environments. The systems include enrichment media, selective agars, lateral flow rapid tests and PCR-based confirmation methods, designed to support a structured Listeria Environmental Monitoring Programme that satisfies IFS, BRCGS and regulatory requirements. Early detection of Listeria in the production environment is significantly less costly than a product recall or outbreak investigation.

Pathogen Detection

Salmonella Rapid Detection Kits

Rapid Salmonella detection kits for environmental monitoring and incoming raw material screening in food production environments. Salmonella is a mandatory target organism in HACCP hazard analyses for poultry, egg, meat, produce and many other food categories. Rapid lateral flow tests return a result in 15-20 minutes from enriched sample, allowing same-day decisions on production hold or release. PCR-based confirmation systems provide laboratory-grade sensitivity and specificity for regulatory and export market compliance.

Key Features

Air Monitoring

Air Quality Monitoring Systems

Continuous and spot-check air quality monitoring systems for food production and packaging environments. Airborne microbial contamination, particulate levels, CO2 concentration, humidity and temperature are key parameters in controlled production areas — particularly high-care and high-risk zones where product is exposed and unpackaged. Systems include settle plate holders for passive microbial sampling, active air samplers for volumetric microbial counts, and electronic sensors for continuous particulate and gas monitoring.

Key Features
ParametersMicrobial, particulate, CO2, humidity, temp
MethodsSettle plates, active sampling, electronic sensors
ZonesHigh-care, high-risk, ambient and packaging
DataContinuous logging and trend analysis

Molecular Testing

PCR Food Pathogen Testing Systems

On-site PCR (polymerase chain reaction) testing systems that bring laboratory-grade pathogen detection into the food facility. PCR amplifies specific DNA sequences from target pathogens, delivering highly sensitive and specific results without the need to send samples to an external laboratory — reducing turnaround time from days to hours. Systems are available for Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli O157, Campylobacter and a range of other food safety relevant pathogens. Suitable for larger facilities with in-house quality laboratory capability.

Key Features
MethodReal-time PCR (qPCR)
Target PathogensSalmonella, Listeria, E. coli, Campylobacter and more
Result Time2-4 hours from enriched sample
Throughput8-96 samples per run depending on system

Laboratory Equipment

Incubators & Lab Equipment

Laboratory incubators, water baths, vortex mixers, stomacher blenders and supporting lab equipment for in-house microbiological and chemical food safety testing programmes. Precise temperature control is fundamental to reliable microbiological results — incubation at incorrect temperatures produces inaccurate counts and missed detections. We supply incubators calibrated to the temperatures required for standard food microbiology protocols alongside the supporting equipment needed to run a competent in-house food safety laboratory.

Key Features
Incubator TypesStandard, refrigerated, CO2 and anaerobic
Temperature Range4°C to 70°C depending on model
CalibrationUKAS-traceable temperature verification
Additional EquipmentStomacher, vortex, water bath, pipettes

Allergen Control

Allergen Detection Kits

Rapid lateral flow and ELISA-based allergen detection kits for the verification of allergen cleaning effectiveness and cross-contact risk assessment in food production facilities. Covers all 14 EU-regulated allergens including gluten, peanut, milk, egg, soy, tree nuts, sesame, mustard, celery, fish, crustaceans, molluscs, lupin and sulphites. Used as part of allergen management programmes to verify that cleaning between allergen-containing and allergen-free production runs has reduced allergen residues to below action limits.

Residue Detection

Protein Residue Swab Systems

Rapid protein residue detection swabs for post-cleaning verification of food contact surfaces where protein contamination represents both a hygiene and allergen risk. Protein residues indicate incomplete removal of food soil and are a primary substrate for biofilm formation. The swabs use a colorimetric reaction to detect protein above a defined threshold, returning a visible pass/fail result within seconds. Used as part of allergen cleaning verification programmes and general cleaning effectiveness monitoring.

Key Features
Detection MethodColorimetric reaction
Result TimeUnder 30 seconds
