Presentation Description:

How high pressure processing supports clean label trends in raw pet food – As the clean label movement grows in influence in the marketplace, the trend has spilled into pet food retailers as well. Consumers are increasingly reading labels on pet food products and seeking top-shelf ingredients for their pets. Similarly, chemical-free preservation methods are growing in availability for pet food producers. Duffy provides insights into these trends and an overview of high pressure processing, a chemical-free, non-thermal pasteurization technology.

Duffy seeks to help companies find success in their commitment to food safety, sustainability and differentiation, approaching this topic from a 30-foot-view to inspire audiences to expect more from their processing method. He has previously spoken at the HPP Summit, 2016 and 2017; the Association for Corporate Growth Chicago’s 8th Annual Food Industry Conference; and numerous organizational town hall presentations the past 25 years with audiences ranging from 20 to more than 100 people.
