Line inspection procedure: What should be included?

Purpose: Line inspection

A line inspection is performed to ensure clean production lines and correct labels are used.

Implementation

The line must be cleaned between each product to prevent (cross) contamination. The following aspects must be checked during line control:

• All labels must be cleaned up.
• Product residues must be absent.
• Packaging residues must be absent.
• The additives must be absent.

In addition, before starting it is checked whether:

• The correct labels are present.
• The correct packaging is present.

When all the above is correct, the line can be released.

Production is not allowed if one of the above aspects does not comply. Record all measures taken on the production form.
