Thermal processing of foods ensures that the product is safe to eat. Thermal process validation is a structured approach to ensure that a heat treatment consistently achieves the required level of microbial inactivation for food safety. It involves identifying the critical parameters such as time, temperature, and product characteristics, then demonstrating—through thermal mapping of the process—that the process reliably meets food safety targets. Validation verifies that the thermal process not only works under ideal conditions but remains effective during routine production, ensuring safe products on an ongoing basis.
Biotec provides a complete thermal validation service using third party calibrated thermal loggers to map a cooking process to ensure that the thermal process meets all relevant food safety standards
