What is
HACCP?
HACCP is
a pro-active process control system by which food quality
is ensured. This system has been adopted by many countries
around the world and is mandatory in some countries, including
the United States.
The HACCP process consists of:
- Hazard Analysis,
- Identifying Critical Control Points (CCP),
- Establishing Critical Limits for each CCP,
- Monitoring CCP requirements and using the data
gathered to effectively control processes,
- Corrective Action,
- Record keeping,
- Verification.
We have
a qualified staff of trained QC Technicians to monitor and
record various product and environmental conditions continuously
throughout each production shift to ensure that every product
we manufacture lives up to the high standards that we hold
for our products.
