Purchase price covers just 20% to 30% of food processing equipment's lifetime cost. The rest? It hits you later: Water, chemicals, energy, maintenance, production loss, compliance, validation.

Join us for a free webinar evaluating the true cost of food and beverage processing equipment. We'll walk through what separates a good deal from an expensive mistake, and how sanitary design and certification factor into that math from day one.

Webinar: Evaluating the True Cost of Food & Beverage Processing Equipment

Have you specified 3-A certified equipment, made the business case for hygienic design investment, improved an inspection outcome, prevented contamination through smarter design, or navigated a certification journey of your own? Your peers want to hear how you did it.

We are building the 2027 Summit on Hygienic Design around one idea: “Building a Food Safety Culture Through Hygienic Design.”

That culture is built by people like you, who have done the work and lived the results.

Topics range from equipment specification and CIP chemistry to AI and automation in food processing, standards development, and maintenance practices that protect hygienic design over time. A full list of session topics is available on the call for speakers page. Click the link below to learn more.

The deadline to submit a proposal is September 30, 2026.

You have a story worth telling, and we would love for you to tell it at the 2027 Summit on Hygienic Design.

We are building the program around one idea: “Building a Food SafetyCulture Through Hygienic Design.”

That culture is built by people like you: Equipment manufacturers, food and dairy processors, regulators and inspectors, procurement professionals, and researchers who have done the work and lived the results.

If you have specified 3-A certified equipment, made the business case for hygienic design investment, improved an inspection outcome, prevented contamination through smarter design,or navigated a certification journey of your own, your peers want to hear how you did it.

Topics range from equipment specification and CIP chemistry to AI and automation in food processing, standards development, and maintenance practices that protect hygienic design over time.
