Food processing and packaging company tna has launched a data collection and reporting tool which offers insights into the production process.

The intelli-sys iPS3 tool offers food manufacturers a single, standardised platform to collate, visualise and evaluate live and historical information from every part of the production chain and across multiple locations.

By integrating data from every process and at every site in a single-plant management system, the iPS3 increases visibility, reduces administrative tasks, optimises processes and improves traceability, resulting in a smarter, more transparent and  more profitable manufacturing process, according to tna.

The system easily integrates with all existing tna and third party equipment and offers a user-friendly web-capable interface.

Better fault detection ensures downtime and waste are kept to a minimum, while food safety and product quality are maintained at all times.

The collation of detailed historical data, such as batch scheduling, tracking and tracing can be used for both internal communication purposes, but also as an external tool to prove regulatory compliance.

The ACCC has instituted court proceedings against Clorox Australia, owner of GLAD-branded kitchen and garbage bags, over alleged false claims that bags were partly made of recycled 'ocean plastic'.

In news that is disappointing but not surprising given the recent reports on the unfolding Qenos saga, the new owner of Qenos has placed the company into voluntary administration. The closure of the Qenos Botany facility has also been confirmed.

An agreement struck between Cleanaway and Viva Energy will see the two companies undertake a prefeasibility assessment of a circular solution for soft plastics and other hard-to-recycle plastics.
