What are the good hygienic practices in the dairy industry?

Maintaining cleanliness in the dairy industry is a must. According to the prescribed standards, hygiene practices are mandatory for dairy product manufacturers. This helps in ensuring that the end products are consumable. However, hygienic practices to be followed may include acquiring certain equipment. In this blog, we will discuss the equipment that needs to be acquired for better hygiene.


Reduction of Human Involvement


Manufacturing units in the dairy industry are automated, requiring less manual effort. This also reduces physically touching the equipment, reducing the possibility of any contamination. In recent times, the use of programmable logic controllers has grown in factories, and the dairy industry has also followed suit.


Stainless Steel Equipment


Only equipment made of stainless steel is used in the dairy industry. Stainless steel process tanks and stainless steel cheese vats are deployed by the dairy industry to reduce the possibility of any corrosion. They have smooth surfaces that are easy to clean.


Cleaning mechanism


The dairy industry requires a cleaning mechanism for its equipment. The cleaning equipment must adhere to two basic requirements for maintaining hygiene. They should reduce human involvement, and they should be made of stainless steel. CIP systems are automated systems to clean equipment that cannot be disassembled. At the same time, COP parts washers are cleaning systems made of stainless steel. They can be used to remove dirt from components of stainless steel process tanks and stainless steel cheese vats. Components with hard-to-clean crevices can be sanitized with them. Automated versions have PLC, which can control many of the processes required in cleaning. They have baskets in which the components can be kept for convenience.


Conclusion


Stainless steel process tanks and stainless steel cheese vats are used in the dairy industry because they are easy to clean. COP parts washers can do the job of maintaining hygiene easily because they remove resistant filth from components.
