Sono-Tek’s president, Dr. Joseph Riemer, PhD, presented a technical paper at the IFT Annual Meeting and Food Expo on June 13, 2011. The paper, entitled “Enhancing Food Safety via Ultrasonic Spray Coating of Anti-Microbial Agents” discussed the growing market for antimicrobial coatings to extend shelf life and enhance food safety, and the role Sono-Tek’s technology plays in this market. With improved functional coating quality and significant cost savings, Sono-Tek’s ultrasonic nozzle systems are a natural fit for this growing segment of the food industry. Using dramatically less material than pressure spraying systems, ultrasonic spray has the added benefit of environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.
