G50 Guidelines on good manufacturing practice for heat processed flexible packaging
1st edition (2006)
ISBN 0 905942 80 9
Practical guidance on the uses and limitations of flexible packaging for heat processed foods
Based on CCFRA’s long established Guidelines on GMP for sterilisable flexible packaging operations for low acid foods (Technical Manual No. 4), this extensively revised and updated guide has been developed by a group of representatives actively involved in the manufacture and development of these types of products. It takes in packaging requirements (preformed, reel fed and secondary), filling techniques, sealing conditions, processing (both pasteurisation and sterilisation) and transportation. It also includes information on recommended quality assurance checks and on pouch defects. Written with a strong practical stance, the guide will be of use to both food and packaging companies using flexible sterilisable packaging for food and drink products.
