5.1 Location
5.2 Perimeter and grounds
Trees away
from
buildings
5.1 Localisation preventing contamination
5.2
Clean area around buildings
• Proper drainage
• Waste collection in defined area
Tree close, wrong
• Buildings surrounded by clear/clean space
Fence with vegetation
Insects and rodents can nest
and hide in the plants
5.3 Layout / product flow
Premises and plant constructed and maintained to avoid
the risk of product contamination
• Plant designed to allow proper cleaning / disinfection
• Sufficient working space
• Working systems designed to reduce risks
• Segregation: processed / unprocessed materials
• Facilities for disposing unused ABP
5.4 Buildings / materials
• Walls designed to avoid dirt and facilitate cleaning
• Wall/floor junctions and corners cleaned
• Cavities in wall surfaces should be avoided
• Adequate drainage to minimise contamination
• Impervious floors kept in hygienic conditions
Dirty drain
Cleaned drain
5.4 Buildings / materials
(cont’d)
• Ceilings/overheads designed to avoid dirt
• Glass must be avoided
• Windows screened to prevent pests
• Doors proofed against pests and kept closed
• Adequate natural and/or artificial light
• Proper air filtering equipment installed and maintained
• Water systems labelled and segregated
Plastic strip doors are
not efficient barriers
5.5 Equipments / instruments
• Designed to minimise error and reduce contamination
• Allow easy cleaning / disinfection
• Properly specified and adequately maintained
• Impervious and non-reactive surfaces
Rarely opened
equipment, ideal
harbourage for pests
Insect webbing
Badly
sealed
cable box
5.6 Maintenance
5.7 Staff facilities
5.6 Maintenance minimising contamination and
respecting written procedures
Roof exhausts
should be cleaned
5.7
• Changing facilities prior to entry the production areas
• Hand washing facilities
• Smoking in designated areas
• Provisions for food storage
• Workwear only in work premises
5.8 Risk of physical / chemical contamination
5.9 Housekeeping hygiene
5.8
• Comply with physico-chemical residues in EU law
• Storage of hazardous chemicals
• Glass policy
• Minimise the use of wood
5.9
• Cleaning/disinfection programmes
• Cleaning effectiveness is verified
• Use only food grade cleaning agents
5.10 Waste / waste disposal
• Sewage, waste and rain water disposed of avoiding
contamination and meeting legislative requirements
• Minimise the accumulation of waste
• Defined waste areas
• Waste collection containers closed and marked
Inspect drains
and sewers
Rework areas
attract pests
5.11 Pest control
• Pest control programmes and measures in place
• Keep records and recommendations of pest inspections
• Drains with screens and traps
• Incoming raw materials checked for pests
• Storage minimising pest infestation
