Magnetic Validations
The Foodstuffs, Cosmetics and Disinfectants Act, 1972 (Act No. 54 of 1972) requires that all food handling enterprises may not handle food without a fully implemented Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point System (HACCP). At Protech, we understand the importance of this system and can assist by testing and evaluating your magnets that are used for metal contamination removal. We provide full documentation which can be used together with your existing HACCP procedures.
This report will identify the strength and general condition of your magnets and whether they are fit for purpose. In addition, we evaluate your process flow and the critical points thereof which may require additional protection, as well as propose the appropriate solutions.
Benefits to you
Using our magnet evaluation service will assist your company in clarifying the condition and strength of your magnets – thus assisting you in your AUDITS.
Regular evaluation will REDUCE THE RISK OF LOSSES from food safety incidences and PRODUCT RECALL.
We also EVALUATE whether your magnets are in the best LOCATION for effective extract and protection and/or equipment.
