Controlling a broad variety of microorganisms is a major challenge in complex food systems sold via long supply chains. Today, food manufacturers recognise that a combination of physical, chemical and biological hurdles is necessary to control both spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms and extend shelf life while complying with microbial safety rules.
Our “multi-hurdle” proprietary NovaGARD™ Antimicrobial Systems are dosage-efficient solutions that combine known natural ingredients with well-defined antioxidative and/or antimicrobial functionality. These combinations result in effective synergies that inhibit a broad range of specific microorganisms. They are produced at our special blending sites in the USA and Europe.
