VIEW THE RECORDING

Consistent action creates consistent results! In other words, what you do every day matters more than what you do every once in a while.

This is especially true when it comes to the cleanliness of production lines to ensure food safety and quality of the finished product. Along the global food supply chain, all have a common goal: To advance and improve hygiene during the processing and packaging of food products.

During this webinar, details pertaining to hygienic design principles when designing and constructing equipment and factories for manufacturing of dairy products is shared. This includes functional requirements, intended use, materials of construction, hygienic design and validations.
