Manufacturing & industry · Agriculture & Agri-Food
From farm gate to cold room.
Packhouses, livestock sites, grain stores, and cold rooms run with seasonal crews. Camnitive checks PPE, restricted zones, and yard safety on the cameras already there. It also times how long loads sit outside cold storage.
In agriculture & agri-food
What goes wrong today.
Vehicles and people share every yard
Tractors, loaders, and trucks work the same yards and intake bays as people on foot, and near misses go unreported.
Cold-chain breaks happen at the dock
Loads left standing outside the cold room are rarely timed, so a break is found at the customer, not at the door.
Seasonal crews, thin supervision
Crews change every season and supervisors cover large sites; PPE and restricted-zone rules slip when nobody is watching.
Detect · Step 1 of 4
What the cameras watch for.
Runs offline at rural sites: FloFrame processes everything locally and syncs alerts over an outbound link when one is available.
Sealed evidence
Ostmere Foods Packing Plant
Demo footage, annotated the way FloFrame does. Each card appears as its alert is raised.
PPE in packhouses
Hard hats and vests where your site requires them, checked by zone and shift.
Restricted & biosecure zones
Entry to poultry houses, livestock sheds, and chemical stores flagged outside permitted hours.
Yard vehicle–pedestrian safety
Tractors, loaders, and trucks kept apart from people on foot in yards and intake bays.
Cold-chain dwell
How long loads stand at the dock outside the cold room, timed and trended per shift.
Forklifts in cold stores
Forklift speed and proximity to people in chilled aisles and loading docks.
Perimeter & after hours
Fence lines, grain stores, and machinery sheds watched outside working hours.
Rules
Rules you would run.
Written in plain words, run on site, checked by a vision model before anyone is alerted.
Cold-chain dwell
“Alert when a load stands in the dock lane for more than 20 minutes”
Then: QA NOTIFIED · DWELL LOGGED
Open in the Rule PlaygroundYard safety
“No person within 4 m of a moving loader in the intake yard”
Then: YARD LEAD PAGED · CLIP SEALED ✓

“Flag any entry to the poultry houses outside scheduled hours”
Then: SITE MANAGER ALERTED · EVIDENCE SEALED

Measure · Step 2 of 4
Every alert becomes a number you manage.
What FloFusion measures for Agriculture & Agri-Food, per zone, per site and over time.
Line staffing
People at each station and bay, against the crew the line was planned for.
Time at station
How long operators stay at each station, and where stations sit empty.
Guard-zone near misses
Reaches into guarded zones while the line runs, per hour watched.
What a pilot sets out to move
- more near misses surfaced
- 3–5×
- typical pilot target in covered yards
- out of cold storage, measured
- Minutes
- pilot target: every covered dock lane timed
- fewer PPE exceptions
- 30–50%
- typical pilot target after the first month
Pilot targets agreed with you up front, not past results.
Comply · Step 3 of 4
Proof that holds up with auditors.
The rules that apply to Agriculture & Agri-Food, scored continuously from camera evidence, with a signed record anyone can verify.
EU OSH Framework Directive
Employers carry a general duty to prevent occupational risks and demonstrate systematic prevention measures.
EU AI Act
AI used for workplace monitoring and safety is high-risk: you must run risk management, keep event logs, maintain technical documentation, and guarantee human oversight and accuracy monitoring.
UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018
Video of identifiable people is personal data: you need a lawful basis, transparency, data minimisation and retention limits, and a DPIA before systematic monitoring of staff.
ICO guidance on monitoring workers
Monitoring must be necessary, proportionate and open: tell workers what you monitor and why, consult them, choose the least intrusive means, and avoid covert monitoring.
Improve · Step 4 of 4
What to change next.
The process map shows where the line is short of hands and where people reach into moving parts.
Rebalance bays across shifts
Move an operator to the bays the map shows unattended at peak.
Guard the capper infeed
Add a fixed guard where reaches into the bottle stream repeat.
Examples of what a pilot’s process map points to.
Getting started
A pilot on the cameras you own.
Prove PPE, yard-safety, restricted-zone, and cold-chain rules at one packhouse through a busy week.
Scope
- Packing lines and intake halls (PPE where your site requires it)
- Yards and intake bays (vehicles and people on foot)
- Cold-room doors and dock staging lanes (dwell outside cold storage)
- Biosecure sheds, chemical stores, and the perimeter (entry out of hours)
We configure
- Plain-English rules per zone, with shift schedules and minimum durations
- Dwell timers on dock staging lanes, set to your cold-chain limits
- Alert routing to site managers and QA, with sealed evidence on each event
- Insights dashboards that compare shifts and, later, sites
You walk away with
- Near misses between vehicles and people surfaced per week
- Minutes loads spend outside cold storage, per shift
- PPE exceptions by zone and shift, against a first-week baseline
- Out-of-hours entries to restricted areas
Questions
Agriculture & Agri-Food: common questions.
Can it measure how long product sits out of cold storage?
Yes, where a camera sees the staging lane. Dwell rules time each load outside the cold room and alert past your limit. The site survey confirms which lanes can be timed reliably.
Link to this questionOur crews are seasonal and change every week. Does that matter?
No. Rules apply to zones, not named people, and Camnitive identifies no one. New crews are covered from their first shift.
Link to this questionWill it work in dusty, wet, or cold environments?
It works wherever your cameras give a usable picture. The FloFrame box sits in a plant room or office, not on the floor.
Link to this questionCan we watch biosecure areas without walking into them?
Yes. Rules flag entry to poultry houses, livestock sheds or chemical stores outside permitted hours, with the clip, so checks happen from the office.
Link to this questionOur sites are rural with weak internet. Is that a problem?
No. FloFrame processes everything on site and keeps working offline. It needs only an outbound connection on port 443 to send alerts when the link is up.
