HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points)
HACCP is a food safety control system which encompasses the entire food production process.
With the numerous food poisoning and animal disease scares making headlines there is an increased public awareness in food safety. Any sign of pests within a food supply or preparation facility can seriously damage a company’s image and public perception. For these reasons as well as the obvious health risks it’s understandable that companies within the food sector have zero tolerance for pests.
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a food safety control system which encompasses the entire food production process. From raw material production to final preparation and consumption. The process identifies where hazards in the food production process may occur and puts measures in place to prevent them. This is accomplished using monitoring and control methods throughout each step of the food preparation process. The underlying concept of HACCP is a systematic approach to prevention and early detection using a structured pest management program.
For obvious reasons, a pest management program within a food production facility needs to be specialised. The application of pesticides within food environments must be well controlled. Where this is not possible, physical control methods without the use of pesticides are used.
For any HACCP related queries or if you as a food manufacturing facility require a pest management program. We as the Pest Control Pros will be able to provide the best possible pest management plan. Our pest control services include setting up the pest control process as well as providing regular monitoring and early detection feedback. Where required control measures are recommended, and carried out.
Our pest control specialists are fully trained and experienced in the HACCP process. We are fully licensed with the Department of Agriculture, use only control measures recommended under ACT36 of 1947 and are a member of the South African Pest Control Association (SAPCA)
