EHEDG is a global expert network advancing food safety through hygienic design and engineering. It connects producers, equipment manufacturers, universities, research institutes and other stakeholders across the value chain to develop practical guidance, training and certification that support safer, more efficient and sustainable production.

As digitalisation transforms the industry, EHEDG promotes the integration of hygienic design with data-driven technologies to better understand and control contamination and fouling risks, optimise cleaning and process performance, and reduce the use of water, energy and other resources.

By supporting the session ‘Digital & Green Dimensions’, EHEDG highlights an essential principle for the future of the industry: innovation and sustainability deliver their greatest value when food safety and hygienic design are built in from the start.
