With product recalls increasing across Australia, the cost of safety failures – from reputational harm to financial loss – has never been higher. Guardians of Food Safety, an initiative from ifm, supports food and beverage manufacturers through simpler transition to digital food safety
B y protecting operations through real-time monitoring and intelligent automation, ifm is providing producers with digital tools designed to prevent contamination, maintain compliance, and keep production running efficiently.
ifm solutions expert Akmal Yang said the company sees itself as a “guardian of food safety”, helping customers in the food and beverage industry protect what matters most through tools that ensure safety.
Built for seamless integration, ifm’s IO-Link-enabled systems connect to existing infrastructure, making the transition to digital food safety simpler and more accessible. From smart flow meters to diagnostic-enabled temperature sensors, these technologies provide real-time visibility and reassurance in critical production areas.
ifm has been helping manufacturers meet global food safety standards since 1969. This latest initiative builds on that experience, giving Australian producers new ways to stay competitive, reduce waste, and demonstrate safety to both regulators and consumers.
“We help our customers protect what’s important to them,” said Yang.
