Reasons Why Food Sometimes Spoils Before Expiration
Nothing lasts forever. Even food has an expiration date, for safety as well as quality reasons; but have you ever wondered why certain foods spoil faster at your home or restaurant; sometimes even before the package is opened, and before the expiration date?
You may have guessed it… It comes down to the air. – More specifically the air quality; and not just in your kitchen, refrigerator or pantry. This starts from the first steps in food processing/production, through storage, shipping, and how it's handled at the distributor and grocer; all the way till it meets your plate.
Certified food and beverage processing plants take this seriously and use several solutions to avoid these types of issues. Commercial manufacturers of food products, (including produce and beverages) not only have industrial HVAC systems, but many must use separate, industrial, air filtration systems to help capture different sized air contaminants, including microbial contamination; like molds, yeasts and bacteria that cause food to spoil. Besides traditional food and food products, dietary supplements, including herbs, vitamins, and other pharmaceuticals can also be affected by airborne viruses.
Along with air contamination, there are other common factors that coincide with food spoilage:
Moisture
Light
Temperature
What protects food from premature spoilage?
Dedicated air filtration systems are the most proven way to control the number of microorganisms and airborne particles within an environment. Depending on which system and filter type, they can trap all sized air particles, as well as being able to influence the indoor humidity, temperature, and air flow.
