The stringent laws and regulations by which food and beverage companies must abide are constantly changing. If your facility is out of compliance with federal guidelines you can face hefty fines and possible shutdowns.
Sanitation violations and citations can cost tens of thousands of dollars, in addition to loss of product and unplanned downtime for replacement parts or mitigation of problem areas.
In addition to equipment compliancy, your facility must also include a properly trained workforce. Finding experts that can regulate these various aspects of your plant floor can be overwhelming, however CBT and its team of hygienic design experts are here to help.
During this specialized audit, a trained team member will tour your facility and analyze your greenspace, surfaces, drains, equipment, and plant layout to flag any possible harborage points. At the end of the audit, a list of recommendations will be provided with the goal of optimizing your plant equipment design and improving cleanability.
Let CBT help your employees learn the do’s and don’ts of food equipment. At the end of this training session, your employees should know the unique importance of hygienic design, the 10 principles of hygienic design, what to look for when designing for hygienic applications, and new products in the marketplace.
