And the award for the Best New Food Safety Solution goes to…
Natures Frequencies’ Food Freshness Card has won the United Fresh Innovation Award for the Best New Food Safety Solution as well as Food Logistics’ award for Top Green Provider 2017.
Consumers insist that worries about food safety is their largest concern when determining whether or not to throw out food. This means that 30–40% of food is thrown out.
The Food Freshness Card is laboratory and commercially tested to keep food fresher longer — and it works for manufacturers and consumers. The 15 cm2 laminated card is programmed with electromagnetic waves and frequencies that are designed to delay the growth of mould (fungi) and bacteria that can feed on and decompose food. It lasts as long as the laminated hologram remains intact — approximately one year — and assists in keeping many foods fresher provided they are within 1.2 m of the card. The Food Freshness Card is suitable for shipping containers, walk-in commercial refrigerators, produce markets, domestic refrigerators and anywhere food is stored.
36 Food Freshness Cards were installed in the commercial kitchen facilities at Bridgewater State University, which are administered by Sodexo. Prior to installation, average spoilage and waste was approximately $500 per month. During the three-month case study, every month recorded $0 spoilage for a three-month saving of approximately $1500.
