Each week, NCC will feature in a short spotlight column the official representative from each of our Allied Leader and Allied Member companies. This week’s Allied Member Spotlight is Brent Bankosky, who is President, Food & Beverage, at Clean Chemistry.
We asked Brent three questions:
In 2-3 sentences, describe what good or service your company provides to the broiler industry.
Clean Chemistry manufactures PeroxyMAXTM, an odorless, on-site generated processing aid to control microbial pathogens during the processing of poultry. PeroxyMAX offers superior microbial control, but with a better safety profile, and is less corrosive to equipment and conveyors. We are excited to be launching PeroxyMAX into the poultry processing market.
Can you briefly describe your position and responsibilities within the company?
As President, Food & Beverage, I have been responsible for building a team, securing the necessary regulatory approvals, and for commercializing PeroxyMAX in several F&B markets, including poultry. We received our FDA FCN earlier this year and PeroxyMAX is now on the USDA FSIS Directive 7120.1 list as a poultry processing aid. It’s a rare opportunity to be able to launch an innovative new chemistry to the poultry industry as well as several other F&B markets.
What is your favorite chicken dish?
My go-to chicken dish is Chicken Parmesan. The great thing about having a Chicken Parmesan dinner is that leftovers make for a delicious chicken parm sandwich the next day!
