What is GMP? Part 2

It is necessary for GMP (Good Manufacturing Practises) to be followed in conjunction with HACCP in the food industry. For GMP to be complied with all cleaning chemicals should be stored in a separate lockable storage area which is away for the production and food storage area.

The effectiveness of disinfectants shall be verified at planned intervals.

Dilution rates need to be understood as overuse can lead to residues which can compromise food safety and be costly due to wastage of product. Underuse or under dilution can lead to your cleaning not being adequate.

Staff also need to be familiar with first aid requirements for all cleaning chemicals in case of accidental use or spillage.
