Holding public kitchens accountable

Until recently, the provincial and federal government of Canada required kitchens in restaurants, schools, and senior complexes to be regularly tested for food pathogens like Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria.

Without regulations in place, kitchen inspections are conducted at the discretion of the property owner. Inspections will involve a quick look around to identify any noticeable hazards. But to save on costs, full inspections are often completed less frequently, less thoroughly, and sometimes not at all.

At petroforma, we believe that kitchen managers should be held accountable for maintaining a safe and bacteria free food prep area to protect the health of people in our community.

As an independent laboratory, we've been serving clients in the food industry since 2001 and the energy industry since 2008. Our labs operate in accordance with ISO9001:2008 Quality Management System and CALA ISO17025 Accreditation.
