Seafood
When seafood is freshly caught eating quality is high, but over time quality will deteriorate and eventually will become unsuitable for consumption. Maintenance of the cold chain and careful handling are a fundamental part of minimizing seafood spoilage.
General Recommendation
From the quality and regulatory perspective fresh seafood means that has been stored at 0℃ and frozen seafood means -18℃ or colder.
The Dangers of Not Monitoring the Temperature
The cold chain in the seafood industry is a temperature chain and begins once the seafood is caught. The cold chain is broken every time the temperature of the seafood rises above 1℃. Fluctuations in the cold chain increase quality loss, these losses cannot be reversed by any means after the event.
The Benefits of Monitoring the Temperature
Best practices on seafood handling and the minimization of temperature fluctuations are paramount for seafood distributed under refrigeration (i.e., chilled and/or frozen) to maintain its quality and maximize its shelf-life.
According to HACCP regulations for seafood safety, monitoring records and logs are obligatory, especially freezer log, thawing log and shipping temperature log.
Our Solution
