Micro-organisms In some cases (yoghurt, cheese, meat) wanted and useful In most cases unwanted and the main reason for food getting spoiled or people getting ill Sometimes only one package / batch affected, e.g. if the equipment was cleaned early enough and well enough Worst case: Complete machine or processing line is infected Micro-organisms are very small and able to live or to survive under diverse conditions They live also in biofilms with several species If human beings were as small as microorganisms, all 7 billion people of the world would fit into one glass of yoghurt!

Hygienic design What is hygienic design? Stainless steel and food, a good connection 2012 VDMA Food Processing and Packaging Machinery Association Page 24 11.12.2012
What is hygienic design? Hygienic design is understanding how a certain product can be processed and packed, within a production plant and production site, with food processing and packaging machinery, by skilled (!) operators, in a way that ensures the product is not affected by unwanted objects (e.g. insects) harmful substances (e.g. machine oil or glass particles) pathogen micro-organisms (e.g. salmonella) quality affecting micro-organisms Stainless steel and food, a good connection 2012 VDMA Food Processing and Packaging Machinery Association Page 25 11.12.2012
Standards and Documents (examples) Documents, which contain some specific details, are e.g. EN ISO 14159, Safety of machinery - Hygiene requirements for the design of machinery EN 1672-2, Food processing machinery - Basic concepts - Part 2: Hygiene requirements Code of Federal Regulations of the United States of America, e.g. part 177, polymers Documents of the EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group), e.g. Doc. 8, Hygienic equipment design criteria, 2d Ed. 2004 Doc. 10, Hygienic design of closed equipment for the processing of liquid food, 2nd ed. 2007 Doc. 32.

Other reasons to choose hygienic design Other reasons to choose hygienic design? Cleaning duration takes about 20 30 % *) of the available production time if hygienic design basics are used if not, the duration will be longer! if the design is improved, the duration can be shorter!!!

Other reasons to choose hygienic design Other reasons to choose hygienic design? Water is the most important food. if hygienic design basics are used less water is needed for cleaning if not, water consumption will be higher! if the design is improved, water consumption can be reduced!!!
