Extra Production fittings and/or sampling devices are stored in cabinets, shelves or hooks and properly labeled for 5S. Production fittings are in good condition and kept clean

  • Secondary containers are properly stored and labeled to meet Food Safety requirements. Secondary containers are kept clean and free of residue. All containers used for the measurement and dispensing of adjuncts and processing aids must be properly labeled or colorcoded, and washed thoroughly after use before being stored in a clean dry place. Labeled containers must only be used (or contain materials) as indicated on their label

  • Production (Food Contact) Hoses (especially hose ends) are stored off of the floor, capped at both ends, in good conditions, and clean

  • Bulk materials and equipment are stored a minimum distance of 45 cm (18 inches) from walls. Bulk materials are stored offthefloor, on clean pallets, racks or shelves to facilitate cleaning. Opened containers are closed and properly sealed when not in use

  • Adequate ventilation and extraction must be provided in product storage and processing environments to prevent condensation or excessive dust. Equipment used for air movement must be free of dust build up, oil leaks, have working hinged louvers, be properly screened and fully functioning. Environmental filters must be used as needed and replaced on a regular schedule

  • Where temporary repairs are made, these must be controlled to ensure the safety or legality of product is not jeopardized. These temporary measures must be permanently repaired as soon as practicable and within timescale of two weeks unless otherwise documented and justified

  • Wood should not be used in open product areas except where this is a process requirement (e.g. maturation of products in wood). Where the use of wood cannot be avoided, the condition of wood must be continually monitored to ensure it is in good condition and free from damage or splinters which could contaminate products

  • The control of the use of sharp metal implements including knives, cutting blades on equipment, needles and wires is required. Snapoff blade knives must not be used

  • All materials and equipment are stored offthefloor, on clean pallets, racks or shelves

  • Cleaners, lubricants, or any other potential contaminants/chemicals are stored away from product and open vessels. Any food grade chemicals/lubricants must be segregated from nonfood grade chemicals/lubricants. Chemicals and food grade materials/ingredients cannot be stored in the same area/room where cross contamination is possible

  • Doors must be maintained in good condition. External doors must be close fitting or adequately proofed. External doors to open product areas must not be left open when not in immediate use except for emergencies. Where external doors to enclosed product areas are opened, suitable precautions must be taken to prevent pest ingress. Exterior doors and/or air curtains provide an adequate barrier against rodent, bird and insect entry (functional, sealed, in good repair)

  • Measurement equipment is properly maintained, clean, calibrated as needed and in working order. Records of calibration are maintained 3 yrs. minimum

  • All water used within the plant that may contact product or product contact surfaces must be potable

  • Control rooms, work stations, offices, maintenance areas and satellite labs must adhere to 5S, personal items properly stored, be free of food/drinks (unless a risk assessment is performed and hand washing is available). Social distance rules and surface disinfection routines are in place

  • The plant has a designated area for the segregation/isolation of nonconforming material/products per the ABI Blocking Policy

  • No repair spare parts are found in the area, e.g.: screws, packing rings, welding rods, etc

  • No excess lubrication is observed for any equipment

  • CIP stations, all dosing points must be clearly labeled with the name of the chemical that must be dosed there. Correct chemical to be connected

  • Containers with chemicals must be labeled clearly by supplier, including the safety icons. The storage place for the container must also be labeled to make sure to separate acid from alkali & oxidizing agents. Oxidizing agents must be stored on plastic pallets, no wood!
