1 CeBeC Group Ltd Sean Daly Managing Director Greener Effective Solutions to Pathogen Control & Processing Environment Decontamination for the Food and Beverage Industry

2 CeBeC is a Company Established by Food Industry Specialists to Promote, Research & Develop Solutions to Problems Identified in the Modern Day Food Processing Environment Problems Identified by Industry Solutions Developed By CeBeC in Partnership with Industry Technology A Unique Natural Bioflavonoid Based Technology Bioflavonoids are extracted from plants Phyto-Chemistry Prior to Penicillin identified and used for healing wounds and sores CeBeC Developed Product Range Food Processing Aids Kill Bacteria that cause spoilage Facilities and Processing Systems Decontamination In Food On Food Around Food

3 Cebec Key Business Development Issues Create Market Value for Technology/ Create Value for Target Client 1. Prove Effectiveness Efficacy against broad range of industry specific microorganisms as compared to chemical based alternatives Lab reports testing protocols 2. Create & Define Target Market Meat Industry in Ireland Fresh Produce in UK Dairy in New Zealand Wine in Australia 3. Develop Supporting Information USP s of technology Natural & Safe Non-Toxic Effective 4. Re-source Plan what is required to meet target market requirements Independent Industry Related Validation» Eco-Toxicity - Proven safe» Cost benefit Direct product price comparisons Vs solution cost 5. Regulatory & Industry Approvals

4 Target Industry Issues 1. Changing Regulations EU & Local - Regulations Food Safety Authorities Human Health Concerns Pathogens Campylobacter, e-coli, Salmonella, Listeria EPA Waste Management Disposal of chemicals used in decontamination Eco-Tox Carbon Foot Print 2. Improve Food Processing Efficiencies Zero Tolerance on Bacterial Contamination Increased quality of food produced Reduced downtime Corrosion of systems (Repetitive use of harsh cleaning agents) Reduction in Water Used (Hot an Cold) Reduction in indirect product costs Chemical recovery

5 Identify Resources Available CeBeC Re-Source Plan County Enterprise Boards Regional Assembly s Enterprise Ireland Various Categories of Funding Industry Contacts Find commercial partners in target markets Identify Needs, Structure A Research Program Look for Best Funding Fit! Short List Companies and Institutes to Work With Check Fit! What you may want to do and what industry sees as a benefit worth paying for!

7 CeBeC Research Example Defined Target Market Meat Industry Poultry and Beef Technology What we Know CeBeC Product Range Preliminary Support Information in Place Proven to meet EN 1276 Protocols Log 5 reduction in bacterial count / Kill Product Information Validation GMO Free No Toxins, Etc. Success in other food related industries Product Range developed for decontamination & sanitisation of food, facilities and people. Natures Answer Natures Defence Anti-bacterial, Anti-Viral, Anti-Fungal, Mould destroying. Secondary Information Required Commercial Regulated Plant Trials How? Research Influencers - Target National Food Centre (Teagasc Ashtown) Government Food Research Centre all resources in place 1 Beef and 1 Poultry Processor Department of Food and Agriculture Trial Permits

8 Define Project Scope Work with Irish Based Food Companies to meet EU Environmental and Quality Control Requirements within the Food Industry Obvious Fit Environmental Superior Products Feasibility Study CeBeC is a company established to take advantage of the changing business and regulatory environment with respect to pathogen control in the food and allied industries. Cebec negates the use of toxic harmful chemicals through the provision of effective natural and biodegradable bio-technologically advanced product based solutions. Improve the environmental and hence business performance of Irish SME manufacturing industry NO CHLORINE NO QUATS NO CAUSTICS NO PEROXIDES

9 Define the Program For ESP 1. Meet with all relevant parties/influencers 1. NFC Ashtown Define work required 2. Meet the Processors get their feedback and interest Listen Notes. 3. Make sure required validation/authority is in place (Dep Food) 2. Discuss and define proposed work with influencers Re-evaluate it may have a perceived value to you but it must have target market value. ASK? Re-define and finalise scope of project Must have agreement from all parties/influencers before moving forward 3. Schedule out work based on KPI s and spending 4. Document and Present with Application to ESP

10 CeBeC ESP Program Meat Industry Project broken down into 4 clearly defined parts Part 1: NFC Ashtown Efficacy on Meat Food Processing Aid Kill any contaminants Part 2: NFC Ashtown Efficacy in Environment - Processing Facility & Systems Cleaning and sanitisation of Systems Part 3: Processors Facilities In-House repetition of trials on Meat Part 4: Processors Facilities In-House repetition of trials on Environment

11 Defined Project Benefits On successful completion of Project Credible Research that will stand up to peer & industry review Industry Validated Proven effective in Commercial Environment CeBeC Client Benefits - Natures Alternative to Toxic Synthetic Chemicals Non Toxic, Non Carcinogenic, Non Mutagenic, Non Corrosive No human health or environmental hazards Promote your eco friendly processing environment greener business and the educated consumer Broad Spectrum Proven Efficacy Against: Food, Human and Animal borne pathogens.
