MPS works in collaboration with industry-leading companies

Harry has further taken up a consultative role with MPSC Australia Pty Ltd.

MPSC's Rinse & Chill (TM) Technology has been in commercial use in Australian beef establishments for several years, during which time over 3 million head of cattle have been slaughtered through this value adding process.

Rinse & Chill (TM) is an enhanced bleeding methodlogy in which the cardiovascular system of a pre-rigor animal is rinsed out with a sterile and isotonic solution of natural substrates. The result is more consistent management of pH and temperature decline.

Establishments utilizing RCT on beef have realized assorted benefits
including:

  • Improved dressing and boning yields
  • Improved colour and minimization of dark cutting meat, with better
    performance in retail display
  • Accelerated chilling and improved refrigeration index
  • Improved tenderness and palatability
  • Improved micro counts

Currently MPSC is introducing an adaptation of RCT for use in lamb,
mutton and other small stock. Similar to beef, the technology will
deliver various quality an economic benefits including.

  • Improved dressing yields.
  • Improved colour, both in seasonally problematic lamb, and
    significantly in hogget and mutton.
  • Alleviation of unpalatable flavour in older livestock.
