PhageGuard contributes to safer food production by using phages. As the natural enemy of bacteria, phages specifically kill pathogens like Salmonella and Listeria, and leave the good ones intact. They are green, smart and easy to apply on food via spraying, misting or dipping. Phages can also be used directly on food contact surfaces or in the processing environment.

Easy

PhageGuard is easy to apply to food via spraying, misting, or dipping. There is no effect on taste, color, or smell so there is no need for product reformulation. As a processing aid, it does not require labeling.

Smart

The PhageGuard products have a strong science base. From the fundamental research at the world leading Swiss University ETH to the applied science at point of use, our knowledge and expertise is second to none.

We know how phage work and how they can work for you. They are highly efficacious and cost-effective.

Green

We firmly believe that nature itself provides the solutions for modern day challenges. PhageGuard is the result of that belief: an effective organic solution to make food safer.
