SUPPLY CHAIN

aintaining a reliable and sustainable cold chain
for perishable goods is a challenging endeavor,
especially for milk, cheese and other dairy products,
which face unique temperature fluctuation issues.
The dairy supply chain is particularly vulnerable to
challenges related to maintaining freshness compared to other
food and beverage sectors. Even minor temperature changes
- such as fluctuations of just 1 degree - can drastically
impact product shelf life. Current methods often fail to
account for unit level variations within the same shipment or
pallet, resulting in dairy products sometimes having half or
double their expected shelf life.
Although there are regulatory guidelines in place and
dairy industry leaders are actively addressing longstanding
perishability issues associated with temperature-controlled
storage and refrigerated transport, spoilage and safety
concerns continue to persist. Factors such as seasonal
temperature spikes, malfunctions in refrigeration equipment,
transport delays, power outages and severe weather can all
lead to significant product losses for dairy producers.
That's where sensors come in. Sensors play a crucial role
in the dairy industry, monitoring various parameters to ensure
product quality, safety and operational efficiency.
For instance, sensors are used to continuously monitor the
temperature of dairy products throughout the supply chain,
from production to storage and transportation, which helps
prevent spoilage and better ensures product safety.
Sensors also are utilized to monitor the quality of milk and
other dairy products by detecting changes in composition
or spoilage indicators. For example, they can identify the
presence of contaminants or abnormal bacterial levels.
There also are sensors that help monitor moisture levels
in storage facilities and transportation vehicles, some that
measure the pH levels of dairy products during processing,
and flow sensors that track the quantity and consistency of
milk and other dairy products during production.

Technology can enhance quality, reduce waste and
ensure safer dairy products in a challenging supply chain.
