Contamination from compressed air is a major source of concern for the food and beverage industry. Modern manufacturing and production facilities use compressed air in multiple ways, increasing the potential for contamination if the machinery is not working properly.

These processes require compressed air to be clean, dry and free of contaminants to ensure your production is running smoothly. Your goods need to meet rigorous safety and quality inspections, and dirty air can introduce problems at almost any point in your process.

for Food and Beverage Operations?

Why Put Contamination Risk First?

Eliminating contamination is your primary concern when including any new system into your operations. Your air compressor decision should be the same.

In the United States alone, foodborne illnesses are expected to cost roughly $55.5 billion each year in medical treatment costs, lost productivity and illness-related mortality, impacting about 9 million Americans. If any foodborne illnesses are traced back to you, chances are likely your operation could suffer from product recalls and potential litigation.

The risk to you is often extremely expensive. Roughly half of all food recalls will cost a company more than $10 million, and losses of up to $100 million have been reported.

In 2016, there have been major recalls for pet food products. Food recalls happen for a variety of reasons, from major contaminations to improper labels, all of which may occur throughout a supply chain. Take care to guard against it.
