Resource efficiency, main theme at Anuga FoodTec 2018
Every resource in terms of materials, energy, personnel and capital needs to be used efficiently for greater sustainability, lower environmental impact, and savings in a wide range of business sectors, declared Simone Schiller, Managing Director of the DLG Competence Center Food & Beverage (DLG = Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft – German Agricultural Society), on an interview regarding what visitors to the trade fair in Cologne can expect this year.
"On the grounds of its exceptionally high importance for the food and beverage industry, the technical programme at Anuga FoodTec 2018 will be concentrating on the guiding theme of resource efficiency. Many exhibitors at Anuga FoodTec 2018 will be showing innovative solutions for reducing the use of energy and water as well as for cutting food losses in production and at the same time boosting competitiveness", explained Schiller.
Three event formats will comprise the agenda dedicated to this topic: an opening conference under the heading “Resource efficiency – challenges and opportunities”, a special Forum entitled “Resource efficiency” and last but not least the Guided Tours of the exhibition.
The meat processing technology sector will have a spotlight during the guided tours highlighting selected exhibitors who will have about ten minutes each to present innovative products and solutions addressing a specific theme from Industry 4.0; Filling and packaging technology – modularisation, flexibilisation and individualisation; or Meat processing technology.
"In view of the many different challenges that the food industry is facing on the international scene, it is becoming increasingly more important to keep an eye on the technical and technological facilities available around the world, as well as the available forces in research and development. One key strength of Anuga FoodTec is the cross-sectoral strategy of the trade fair, which covers virtually the entire food and beverage production sector and allows a progress-oriented perspective", mentioned Simone Schiller.
