In a lot of industries, be it the food industry, the healthcare sector or even in pharmaceutical businesses, temperature control is vital. A lot of people still underestimate the importance of having an adequate temperature monitor in place, but failing to have one could mean that the company is breaking the law.

Let’s start with the food industry. According to food safety law, all food products have to be kept at designated temperatures if they’re going to be safe to eat. Having them too cold renders them inedible and too warm and it could encourage bacteria growth, so keeping a close eye on temperatures is vital. This applies to the storage areas, such as the fridges or freezers, but it also applies to the preparation and cooking areas and even on the shop floor itself, so it’s essential to have a temperature monitor at every step of the way.

However, it’s just as important in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sector. A lot of storage and testing environments, including fridges and freezers and even the lab, need to be kept at set temperatures if the work is going to be carried out effectively. Let’s not forget the importance of keeping certain medications at the right temperature as well, so it’s essential to have adequate temperature control in place at all times.

Temperature control is so important because it not only keeps all substances and food items at set temperatures but it also means that the business is operating completely legally, and it’s surprising how temperature can have so much of an effect when it comes to the law.

Manual temperature control is often used, but now there’s an even easier way of achieving the same results – wireless temperature monitoring. This is a lot more convenient and hassle-free than more conventional methods, so businesses should always consider investing in a wireless system (such as that provided by Kelsius) for complete peace of mind.
