The power of applied phage technology
Phageguard enhances nature’s own power for controlling food pathogens in the food industry: the bacteriophage. Through applied phage technology, we offer a range of natural, non-hazardous solutions that specifically target Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli (STEC). With this precision, our bacteriophage products enable food processors to achieve effective control of food pathogens, while offering numerous benefits that support brand integrity and modern processing standards.
Preserve sensory attributes
As a result of the precise targeting ability of bacteriophages, our bacteriophage products specifically inactivate Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli (STEC) while preserving nutritional values and delicate sensory attributes, such as color, taste, texture, and odor.
Non-hazardous and non-corrosive
Our bacteriophage products are harmless to humans, animals, and plants, and do not cause corrosion to production equipment or the environment. Improve food safety without posing plant workers to hazardous substances and prevent expensive equipment replacements caused by contamination or corrosion.
Entirely natural, without harsh chemicals
Dilutable and made entirely from naturally derived components. Our bacteriophage products are free from harsh or synthetic chemicals, offering a suitable food safety solution for organic processing lines.

Validated bacteriophage solutions for taking control of food safety
The efficacy of our bacteriophage solutions are consistently undergoing performance studies in our R&D laboratory, ranging from efficacy against Listeria species such as L. monocytogenes and L. innocua to specific Salmonella serotypes, like monophasic S. Typhimurium 4,[5],12:i:- and S. Derby. Combined with a bacteriophage specialists team and experience in real-world industrial implementations tracing back to 2005, Phageguard takes pride in providing applied phage technology to strengthen food safety management systems for a wide range of food industry sectors around the globe.

Improving food safety in your processing facility
Different application possibilities are available for applying our phage solutions, often without requiring any significant changes to the production line. Depending on your production size, processing line, and product type, multiple techniques for application can be used. To ensure the effectiveness, our specialists work closely with you to determine the optimal dilution and application method tailored to your production needs.
Analysis of current situation
Each process is different. Based on your product and production process, we will analyze the estimated dose response needed and the application possibilities available. This way we can provide you with the correct information to outline what can be expected.
Start todayTrial and evaluation
Tailored to your process, needs and wishes, we propose and initiate a trial based on your production size and pathogen concern. After receiving the rendered results, we finetune the application and/or dose where needed to optimize results.
