Overview
The food and beverage industry is highly competitive, and the pandemic has made it even more challenging than ever. Businesses must protect their brands and deliver the highest level of food safety and sanitation. One unsafe incident, in one location, can destroy an entire brand.

Everclean Verified Mark for Food Safety Practices
UL’s Marketing Claim Verification is an objective, science-based assessment that confirms the accuracy of marketing claims.
