Food manufacturers can gain a robust integration between product inspection data and a cloud-based platform that provides product transparency throughout the food supply chain.

Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection today announces a new, industry-leading strategic partnership with EVRYTHNG, the pioneer of the Product Cloud. The partnership provides food manufacturers, retailers and brand owners with an end-to-end traceability and food production reporting solution. This will enable aggregation of product data at every point in the value chain, for visibility, validation and real-time intelligence. Having full visibility of all product data will help to identify ingredient and packaging issues early in the manufacturing process thereby facilitating product recalls and traceability to the precise location of substandard product in the marketplace for quick retrieval.

The two companies, working collaboratively, are positioned to further the digitalization of the food safety landscape. The joint proposition is achieved by Mettler Toledo ProdXTM device data management software monitoring and collecting product inspection information in real-time. The software records all inspection activity from Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection systems - notably metal detectors, x-ray inspection, checkweighers and vision inspection technologies. This data can be integrated and modelled in the EVRYTHNG Product Cloud®, applying a new level of data intelligence to advance audit, reporting and food traceability use cases for multi stakeholder groups. 

The integration between these technologies is founded in and aligned with the emerging digitalization programmes from food safety bodies such as the FDA’s “New Era of Smarter Food Safety”, and the GFSI’s “Race to the Top”. EVRYTHNG co-chaired the GS1 Standards Development Working Group and contributed critical intellectual property that created the GS1 Digital Link Standard. This upgrades the traditional barcode used by two million manufacturers today, to make every product smartphone-interactive and web-connected.

As well as being assured that their product digitalization activities are compliant with these global standards, food manufacturers can benefit from enhanced transparency and traceability of products manufactured, more informed decision-making, greater automation and reduced operating costs.

At the heart of the EVRYTHNG Product Cloud®, enabling this level of transparency and traceability is the Active Digital IdentityTM (ADI) – a unique digital identity assigned to products in the EVRYTHNG Product Cloud®, at an individual product item, batch or SKU level. The ADI ensures that data is captured and managed by EVRYTHNG at every touch point throughout a product’s lifecycle. This information can be used by food manufacturers, retailers and food safety audit bodies to ensure compliance with food safety regulations and contract requirements, improve supply chain performance with greater agility and integrity, and can be surfaced to consumers to provide transparency with authentic data.  

“The digital transformation in food manufacturing is going to happen: it’s a question of when, rather than if,” said Rob Rogers, Senior Advisor Food Safety & Regulations of Mettler Toledo Product Inspection. “We want to help food manufacturers to embrace that transformation, by making it as easy as possible for them. The two major factors they will need to address right at the outset are the gathering of manufacturing data and being able to simply and efficiently deploy that data to improve food safety and supply chain performance. The partnership between Mettler-Toledo and EVRYTHNG is about developing and providing a robust and proven infrastructure to handle that wealth of digital data”.   

 “The beauty of our partnership with Mettler-Toledo is that it will allow food manufacturers to not only extend food safety performance, but also to harness digitalization as a means to really take a leap into the future,” said Niall Murphy, CEO of EVRYTHNG. “Food safety is a critical factor for all food manufacturers. Our solution will enable them to get ahead of the curve, by collecting and managing data for every individual product that comes out of their factory, in a way that is locked into already globally-accepted standards for digital track and trace.”

 

Mettler-Toledo Product Inspection and EVRYTHNG are hosting a joint webinar titled The Food Safety Digital Revolution on 27th May 2021. Together we will discuss how food manufacturers can prepare for the coming demands of digitalization. To register: www.mt.com/pi-foodsafety-pr
