Improving Food Safety and Food Quality
DuPont is working with experts and agencies like the USDA to ensure food producers have innovative solutions to meet the highest global standards in food quality and food safety.
Thanks to DuPont packaging technologies, foods of all kinds arrive safer, fresher, and more conveniently. It’s a result of our scientists and engineers working to develop innovative products like DuPont™ Surlyn® and DuPont™ Appeel® sealant resins to deliver superior clarity, seal integrity, and puncture resistance.
DuPont™ Danisco® advanced bio-based solutions provide superior protection and improved shelf life. Our ingredients protect food against pathogenic bacteria and spoilage organisms. In fact, we offer the leading range of natural protective solutions on the market.
Our award-winning BAX® system provides a fast, accurate genetic method for detecting pathogens in food samples. And the RiboPrinter® System helps track and identify unknown bacterial isolates at or below the species level.
At DuPont, we’re here to help food manufacturers and processors satisfy the most demanding standards for food safety and quality.
