production and control moisture losses. Combined with a
reduction in cutting loss waste, this can allow cheesemakers
to produce more yield from the same amount of milk.
Indeed, research suggests that if all Gouda and Parmesan
cheeses globally were ripened using Pack-Age, 200,000 tons
of cheese waste could be avoided every year – reducing milk
use by 3.55 billion liters and CO2 emissions by 6.2 million
tons annually.5
Partnering for success
As sustainability concerns in cheese production take center
stage globally, the importance of reducing food waste and
increasing efficiency to do more with less will continue to rise.
The latest cheese ripening technology can support cheesemakers
in overcoming these challenges, while also enabling
the production of high-quality, on-trend products with clean
labels and a great taste and texture to stay ahead of the curve.
The right partner can help cheese producers implement
ripening technology successfully, optimizing processes to
prevent operational downtime, especially when using existing
vacuum equipment. Once fully integrated, an expert
partner can support manufacturers in tracking progress in
terms of productivity and sustainability, allowing manufacturers
to achieve the desired results, drive innovation and
stay at the forefront of the industry. From sustainability to
consumer trends, DSM’s Pack-Age cheese ripening technology
offers an effective approach to tackle the complex challenges
faced by cheesemakers globally.

scientific know-how, DSM is well placed to help producers
create a more sustainable and economically efficient cheese
industry. DSM also partners with its customers to anticipate
their needs and help them select the right solutions that will

partner
Salesforce and Siemens jointly are
developing a new workplace technology
suite that will support businesses
globally to safely reopen
and deliver the future experience
for physical workplaces. The partnership
will combine Salesforce’s
Work.com, powered by Customer
360, and Siemens’ Smart Infrastructure
solutions, including Comfy
and Enlighted, to orchestrate the
processes, people and things that
are essential to creating safe, connected
workplaces for the future.
Key solutions include a ‘touchless
office’ with mobile employee
boarding passes for building and
elevator entry, and a safe occupancy
management system, which
allows employees to reserve conference
rooms and desks through
Comfy’s app that sends real-time
alerts as thresholds are reached.

Additionally, by leveraging occupancy
and location data provided
by Enlighted and aggregated within
Comfy, including employee check-in
and desk and room reservations,
businesses will be able to augment
their manual contact tracing in
Work.com. This will allow for a
faster and more accurate emergency
response. Contact tracing
will be an opt-in solution to respect
users’ privacy.
