Equipment suppliers may not always fully appreciate the operational challenges facing food manufacturers, according to Campden BRI, such as quality management systems, HACCP, hygiene procedures and retailer requirements. Similarly, the company says, food manufacturers may not always realise the constraints faced by suppliers, e.g. cost pressures, operator safety concerns (which may conflict with food hygiene requirements) and materials of construction constraints.

A Campden BRI seminar – Hygienic food processing: on paper and in practice – to be held on 25 September is designed to bridge the gap between the two, by establishing a common understanding of the issues faced by both sectors.

This, says the company, will be achieved by presentations and interactive discussions around three themes:

• Legislation, compliance and quality management systems
• Fundamentals of hygienic design and the need for clear specification of design
• Case studies of how to make it work in practice.
