High profile meat issues covered by University of Wisconsin at Process Expo

The Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA) announced the details of two sessions on the PROCESS EXPO University schedule featuring speakers from the University of Wisconsin’s Department of Animal Sciences. These sessions are “Determining Product Shelf Stability and Shelf Life in Meat Products” by Dr. Jeff Sindelar on Wednesday, September 16th and “Spoilage of Ready-to-Eat Processed Meats and Tips for Solving the Problems,” presented by Dr. Adam Borger on Thursday, September 17th.

"Spoilage of ready-to-eat meat products continues to be a major cause of food loss for consumers and economic loss for manufacturers," said Gil Williams, Chairman of the Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA) and President of Poly-clip System USA and Canada. "Furthermore, shelf stability and the spoilage of processed & ready-to-eat meat products is something that plagues the industry as a whole. With several real-life incidents being reviewed, attendees will be able to fully understand the extent and importance of solving these issues.”

“University of Wisconsin has been engaged in some of the meat industry’s best research and we are honored to include them in this year’s show,” said FPSA President and CEO David Seckman. “PROCESS EXPO University provides attendees with the unique opportunity to learn from these experts and many others and take these innovative ideas back to their businesses.”
