Cleaning in the food industry

The importance of cleaning within the food industry is growing steadily. In addition to the foundation of quality, issues such as water consumption, product choices, safety and complete cleaning administration are receiving increasing attention.

At Epacco, we strive to highlight these aspects integrally within our organization. We use clear communication via e-mails, registration documents and clear work instructions to achieve this goal. All agreements made are carefully recorded in a cleaning manual. To safeguard these processes, Epacco provides not only cleaning services, but also regular cleaning audits to periodically evaluate effectiveness.

From our approach to comprehensive cleaning protocols in the food industry, we focus on broader food protection. Food defense and food safety are both essential pillars. Food safety includes prevention of unintentional hazards, while food defense focuses on preventing intentional damage to our food. This includes measures such as production facility security and personnel screening, all with the goal of maintaining the integrity of our food supply.

We as a cleaning firm can play a role in food defense by implementing hygiene and cleaning protocols that support food safety. They can help maintain clean production environments, regular cleaning of equipment and facilities, and adherence to strict hygiene standards. This helps prevent unintentional food contamination. In addition, they can keep an eye out for suspicious activity or unusual conditions during cleaning, indirectly contributing to the overall safety of the food production environment.
