What is Timestrip® ?

Timestrips® are handy single-use, disposable smart labels. Inexpensive and easy to use, they act as a visual guide monitoring temperature dependent elapsed time. It’s a new way to make food storage easier and safer in the professional kitchen and at home too.

Why use Timestrip® ?

'Best Before’ and ‘Use By’ dates have always confused people and more often than not, food and medicines get thrown away as they are past their ‘use before’ date. For fresh foods without dates and frozen produce, it’s difficult to remember when the food was first opened or frozen.

How To Use Timestrip® ?

When ready to activate the Timestrip® smart label, simply peel off the backing paper, squeeze the bubble on the Timestrip® and apply it to the container or packaging of your product such as on a jar of peanut butter. The first window will let you know it has been activated and the Timestrip® will begin showing you how long the food has been opened.

Timestrips® can be used in your fridge, freezer and at room temperature. Enjoy food at its best by ordering your Timestrips® today.

Some Potential Food Service Applications:

• Fresh Fish and Meat – are highly perishable food items which requires extra care to ensure quality is maintained

• Poultry – bacteria can be found on raw or undercooked chicken that multiplies rapidly at temperatures between 40 °F and 140 °F (can occur out of refrigeration and before thorough cooking occurs)

• Fresh Fruit and Vegetables – provide accurate shelf life guide rather than a stagnant date reducing the amount of food waste; monitor freshness and help with the first in-first out principle

• Sauces and Condiments – eliminates confusion over ‘use before’ dates e.g. mayonaisse, salad cream, chutney, mustard, tomato sauce or brown sauce all have use within dates while a dynamic date can ensure these are used at their best and reduce waste

Timestrip® smart labels are temperature sensitive and will accelerate when out of the set temperature parameters e.g. when out of the fridge or freezer acting as an additional safeguard for consumers. Timestrip® smart labels are especially useful for food items at high risk to bacteria growth such as fresh fish, meat, poultry and dairy produce. For added security Timestrip smart labels accelerate when out of the set temperature parameters to provide accurate food freshness information.
