ESR is helping to protect the good name of the food industry.
ESR has over 20 years experience in working with the food industry to identify and trace foreign material found in food. Our reputation as a meticulous, professional and independent investigative organisation is second to none.
We are experts at:
- Determining where and when food contamination has occurred.
- Identifying the type of contaminant and its source.
- Identifying foreign taints and odours and their source.
Rapid response means rapid results and a successful outcome
Recent changes to the food legislation have stimulated the food industry to set up Food Safety Programmes based on Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles.
One important component of these Food Safety Programmes is to conduct thorough investigations of complaints using a corrective action procedure.
Whether the problem is straightforward or complex, an ESR investigation will help minimise downtime, reduce the risk of product recall and get things back to normal as quickly as possible.
By the end of our investigation, your company will have:
- A scientifically robust report that can be used to explain to the complainant (and any other interested parties) how the problem has been dealt with.
- Identified improvements in your processing to prevent recurrences.
- A clear demonstration for auditors and health authorities that you responded professionally and responsibly to the situation.
