We firmly believe that nature itself provides the solutions for modern day challenges. PhageGuard is the result of that belief: an effective organic solution to make food safer. Our approach is science driven and in close collaboration with our customers and our worldwide network of research partners. And the best thing: it contributes to a better world: safer products, healthier animals and happier consumers.PhageGuard contributes to safer food production by using phages. As the natural enemy of bacteria, phages specifically kill pathogens like Salmonella and Listeria, and leave the good ones intact. They are green, smart and easy to apply on food via spraying, misting or dipping. Phages can also be used directly on food contact surfaces or in the processing environment. PhageGuard brings the latest food safety tool for cooked meats, fish, dairy, cheese, produce and more. PhageGuard kills pathogenic bacteria without becoming an ingredient itself. It's use has no effect on taste, color or smell of the final product and as a processing aid it does not require labeling.
