Implementation Of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)
|
| Elements of GMP that we have implemented are: |
| |
Premise Design

| Our plant is designed to reduce external contamination (from pests and dust) as well as possible cross-contamination within the premises (between production and non-production areas). The production and packaging areas are enclosed. A proper racking storage system ensures that raw materials and finished goods are properly segregated to prevent possible cross-contamination between clean and unclean products. |
| |
| |
Process Flow
From the point of receiving raw materials to distributing finished products, our workflow is planned to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

Equipment And Utensils
All our equipment are made of stainless steel for easy maintenance and suitability for the food industry. Furthermore, we have implemented a proper calibration and maintenance system for these equipment to ensure optimal performance.

|
| |
Staff Hygiene and Sanitation
Besides wearing proper attire, our staff are trained to follow strict hygiene practices while carrying out their duties.

Production Operations
Aside from installing appropriate monitoring equipment, we conduct regular inspection on raw materials, work-in-progress and end products, as well as perform periodic verifications and microbiological testings. We have also implemented pest control, and standard cleaning and sanitation programs.

Implementation Of HACCP System
|
| In 2004, we introduced the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system into our manufacturing operations to control and monitor risks to our production by identifying possible food safety hazards in our raw materials and process. Subsequently, we determine the preventive and control measures for each of the identified hazards. |
| |
|
|
| |
| Besides monitoring procedures and methods, our staff are trained on handling critical control points (CCP) with their respective critical limits (CL). Staff are also trained on corrective measures and actions to be taken when the monitoring results deviate from the CLs set. |
| |
| All flow processes and production operations are verified either by audit or tests carried out by independent laboratories. Staff are trained on proper documentation such as using checklists, and proper record-keeping. For all procedures and monitoring records, we have established a proper documentation system, including document control of confidential data. |
