Biovitae will present at the Amber Stage during EuroShop 2026, sharing a practical, replicable case study on how continuous antimicrobial lighting can reduce food-borne contamination and extend product shelf-life in cold storage environments.

Event details

  • Date: 22 February 2026
  • Time: 4:20 pm – 4:40 pm
  • Location: Amber Stage, Hall 9 – Düsseldorf

What we will cover

The session focuses on a real food supply chain scenario, where microbial contamination in refrigerated storage directly impacts food waste, safety risk, and operational costs. Traditional hygiene protocols rely on periodic sanitization. However, contamination begins again immediately after cleaning.

Biovitae’s LED light technology introduces continuous, UV-free antimicrobial light that works 24/7 while people are present, reducing microbial load on surfaces and in the air without disrupting operations.

Key insights

  • Measurable reduction of microbial contamination in cold rooms and prep areas
  • Slower bacterial growth on fresh hamburger patties during storage
  • Extended shelf-life and improved product stability
  • Reduced waste and fewer product write-offs
  • No workflow changes required for staff
  • Safe for continuous human exposure (UV-free technology)

Who should attend

This session is particularly relevant for:

  • Retail and grocery chains
  • Food processing and packaging operators
  • Cold storage and logistics providers
  • QSR and fast-food brands
  • Facility and quality managers focused on HACCP and contamination control

Why it matters

Food-borne contamination remains one of the main causes of waste and recalls across the food industry. Continuous antimicrobial lighting offers a preventive approach: reducing contamination before it spreads, instead of reacting after the fact.

If you are looking for scalable, low-impact solutions to improve hygiene performance and extend shelf-life in refrigerated environments, this presentation will provide concrete data and a replicable framework.
