Cleaning Plan South Africa
Bacteria know no borders:
One of the biggest challenges facing food companies is how to avoid bacterial degradation of the quality of the food. If there is cross-infection, where bacteria spread from one place in production to another, the result can be tainting of foods, which have already been produced.
It's therefore important to have a system which will ensure hygiene and food safety.
USE COLOURS TO OPTIMISE CLEANING
A clear and simple colour coding system has been developed, which makes it easier to optimise the company's hygiene. All tools are available in five colours. By using coloured cleaning tools in defined departments or production sections, users can quickly see where the tools may be used, making it easier to avoid moving tools from one colour zone to another.
FULLY COLOUR-CODED TOOLS
Both the filaments and the base are in
the same colour. The colour of each tool is thus clearer, minimising the possibility of error. And if an accident should happen, its cause can be traced with extreme ease.
A critical control point in the HACCP system is cleaning, and in our experience the HACCP system can be improved by optimal planning of the cleaning.
If the company is already using the HACCP system, it's a good idea to supplement it with colour-coded cleaning implements.
THERE ARE SEVERAL ADVANTAGES:
- Focus is placed on cleaning as a critical control point.
- Cleaning is made more efficient and more economical.
- The risk of cross-contamination is minimised.
We can prepare tailor-made cleaning plans. Given a general overview of the areas to be cleaned, we can designate fixed cleaning zones and colour codes, and specify how the chosen cleaning tools should be placed.
The advantage of such a plan is first and foremost that the risk of cross-infection via contaminated cleaning tools is minimised. The plan will then ensure that cleaning is more efficient because the employees always have the correct tool at hand. And finally, we have found that the individual cleaning tool lasts longer when it is cleaned after use and placed on a wall hook until it is needed again. All in all, there are significant savings to be made by introducing colour control of cleaning in the production facilities.
