Meat safety and traceability
Australia’s reputation for producing clean, safe and natural red meat products is a major factor underpinning our exporting success.
In order to ensure the quality and integrity of our beef, sheepmeat and goatmeat – and protect this valuable reputation – MLA and its subsidiary Integrity Systems Company (ISC) work in partnership with the wider red meat industry to implement a number of traceability and quality assurance programs for Australian red meat.
These programs are essential to ensure market access and continued demand for Australia's red meat products and include:
