Mass Notification for Food Manufacturing Facilities

Keep Employees Safe and Maintain Production Continuity

Does your food plant have a crisis communication plan in place to ensure safety and facilitate rapid alerting?

Effective emergency notification is essential for critical and highly-relied upon service industries like food manufacturing. With a comprehensive mass notification system (MNS) such as the Alertus System, you can instantly disseminate important information to your entire food manufacturing facility for any circumstance, from severe weather to updated COVID-19 protocols.

Mass Notification for Chemical Manufacturing Facilities

Addressing Food Manufacturing
Communication Challenges

Notifying a Large, Widespread Area Quickly

Operating in a large, widespread, and loud facility makes it difficult to quickly spread awareness during a crisis.

✔ Communication System Integration

Integrate your MNS with existing communication systems (digital signage, LED marquees, speakers, sirens, horns, fire alarm panels, etc.) to create a multilayered, redundant, and seamless emergency response — regardless of where facility workers may be located or the hustle and bustle of food operations.

Monitoring the Refrigerator Temperature

With other food production responsibilities to juggle, you and your team may not always be able to closely monitor the facility’s refrigerator temperature.

✔ Sensor Monitoring and Building Automation Integration

A robust MNS can leverage Internet of Things (IoT) technology to integrate with fundamental building automation systems like refrigerator temperature sensors to avoid high-risk food spoiling incidents. Set triggers to automate alerts to the people who need to respond immediately.

Protecting Your Food Plant in the Event of a Fire

Reacting quickly during a fire is essential for any organization, but the highly flammable elements make it especially timely in a food plant environment.

✔ Single Point of Activation

Use your MNS to mitigate harm and reduce emergency response times by activating all emergency endpoints with just a push of a button.

Reaching Everyone, Everywhere

Due to loud machinery noises, some facility workers can’t hear emergency announcements via a speaker.

✔ Audible & Visual Notification

Use an LED Marquee to display the emergency notification text on the screen. With an MNS that offers both audible and visual notification through clear emergency tone sounders and solutions like Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology, you’ll increase your chances of reaching everyone with timely communication. A high-quality MNS will also be Americans with

Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant to account for individuals with different auditory or visual abilities.

Minimizing Damage During a Water Contamination Incident

A water contamination incident can be incredibly damaging to your food production operations.

✔ Preset Alerts

Use your MNS preset emergency templates to plan ahead for water contamination incidents and any other emergency situations. You’ll decrease the time it takes to send an alert, while increasing the accuracy of the emergency information being distributed throughout your facility.
