Game Meat processing · Botswana
The highest food-safety stakes we serve.
Meat drying carries the highest food-safety stakes of any application we serve — pathogen control is non-negotiable and export markets impose stringent documented requirements.
Processing challenges
- Pathogen control is non-negotiable.
- Oxidation discolours the product; lean meat still develops rancidity through residual fat.
- Results vary batch to batch under uncontrolled conditions.
- Export markets impose stringent documented requirements.
System configuration
- HACCP-aligned design with defined critical control points.
- Precise temperature control across each processing phase.
- Managed humidity gradient preventing case hardening — which in meat means trapping moisture and pathogens inside a dry shell.
- Uniform airflow for consistent results throughout the load.
- Full-access sanitation design for hygienic operation between batches.
Product applications
- Ostrich biltong — traditional drying with modern control, spice infusion, texture development.
- Jerky formats — export-specification texture and moisture, retail packaging preparation.
- Mixed game products — species-specific parameter sets.
Outcomes
- Validated pathogen reduction with per-batch documentation.
- Uniform moisture, texture and appearance.
- Extended shelf life and stable colour.
- Process records supporting buyer and regulatory audit.
