Phenium's Smart Solutions Combat Food Waste Head-On

Phenium, an innovative food safety solution provider, is leading the charge in reducing food waste through its cutting-edge smart systems and technology. By leveraging IoT sensors and collaborative mobile tools, Phenium empowers businesses to optimize their kitchen operations and minimize wastage, ultimately making a significant impact on global food waste reduction.

Unconsumed food is linked to approximately 8-10 percent of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, as reported by the UNEP Food Waste Index. Recognizing the urgency of the issue, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) aims to halve global food waste by 2030. Phenium’s CEO and co-founder, Sari Stenfors, emphasized the need to address the problem holistically, stating, “Food waste is a global problem. Understanding how we can make a difference is a vital factor in moving forward.”

Phenium’s all-in-one food safety solution combines IoT sensors, analytics dashboards, and mobile tools to provide comprehensive monitoring and optimization of commercial kitchen operations. With easily installed sensors, businesses can achieve detailed monitoring of their hot and cold storage areas, ensuring that food is stored at the optimum temperature. Inefficient cooling equipment and unsafe storage conditions are major contributors to food waste, but Phenium’s smart systems address these challenges effectively.

“Our alerts notify you if any area, and therefore any food group, is stored at an incorrect temperature,” explains the company spokesperson. By proactively identifying potential issues, Phenium enables kitchen staff to take prompt corrective action, minimizing the risk of wastage due to improper storage conditions.

Phenium’s commitment to food safety stems from personal experience. After experiencing a near-fatal infection in 2016, CEO Sari Stenfors recognized the importance of ensuring the safety of the food we consume. Determined to make a difference, Stenfors and her team established Phenium with a clear goal: to reduce global food safety incidents by 50%. Through their platform, Phenium leverages IoT, big data, AI, and blockchain technologies to enhance human-centric work processes, collaborating with restaurants and food service providers to guarantee the safety of all offered food.

Phenium urges businesses to improve monitoring, measurement, and processes as a means to significantly reduce food wastage. By using Phenium’s app, businesses can document their procedures comprehensively, eliminating the risk of incorrect food preparation or unsafe practices. The app’s functionality allows for the upload of multiple checklists and procedures, ensuring that all tasks are completed accurately. Additionally, Phenium’s system facilitates precise monitoring and analysis of discarded food, enabling businesses to take targeted action against waste.
