Our eLearning course for the food industry

Food safety is one of the most important tasks in the food industry today.

Manufacturing companies in the food industry are under constantly increasing pressure to meet the required quality standards. At the same time, consumer demands are increasing and the topics of food hygiene and food safety are becoming the focus of public interest.

This eLearning describes and explains the importance of compressed air preparation for the food production sector. The focus is on understanding the process chain with the individual procedures and the associated risks for the end product - the food.

A first introduction: What does compressed air actually mean for a tasty ice cream?

In this video you will learn about the significant influence compressed air has on the production, processing and safety of food. We take a closer look at the use of compressed air in ice cream production and explain what producers should consider in order to avoid contamination of compressed air and the end product. We present relevant guidelines and standards and show what damage can be caused to consumers and companies by contaminated compressed air.
