Hygienic Maintenance for Food and Beverage Processing Plants
Food and beverage plants across Africa must keep equipment running while meeting strict hygiene and food safety expectations. Maintenance work itself can introduce contamination if it is not done to hygienic standards. This programme shows technicians how to carry out repairs, lubrication and installations in ways that protect product safety, using food grade materials and cleaning practices suited to processing environments.
What you will be able to do

Select food grade lubricants, materials and consumables for contact areas.
Carry out clean in place and clean out of place checks during maintenance.
