Understanding EMPs in Food Co-Packing

In our latest video, Karol walks you through the importance of Environmental Monitoring Programs (EMPs) in food processing. Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • Why EMPs matter: They act as a proactive safety net—monitoring surfaces, air, and water to catch microbial hazards before they hit a product line. EMPs validate that your sanitation efforts are working as intended.

  • How we do it: Econo‑Pak executes rigorous cleaning protocols, precise sample collection plans, and works with third‑party labs for unbiased testing.

  • What gets tested: EMPs often include pathogens, indicator organisms, spoilage microbes, and even water potability—ensuring every corner is covered.

  • When things go wrong: In the event of an adverse result, we spring into action—quarantining areas, conducting root cause analysis, implementing corrective measures, and running three consecutive testing cycles to confirm the issue is resolved.

EMPs are a cornerstone of a strong food safety system. They help verify sanitation, pinpoint contamination sources, and ensure swift, effective responses to microbial threats. Delivered with clarity and confidence, our video not only educates—it reinforces our commitment to safety.
