These days at Hygienic Design Training have been unforgettable, amazing and fun. We’ve learned many useful “Great Ideas” that soon will improve our facilities and make us better cheese-makers.

One of the best training/workshops I have received. If you are in the food safety business this one is for you! #HygienicDesignTraining

We all have some knowledge on hygienic designs. In my past, I was more focused on the design of equipment, but I still enriched this skill thanks to tools shared and also hands-on activities, expert experiences and real case examples shared between participants. [In the CFS Hygienic Design Training,] we applied these tools in a hands-on manner to real equipment and highlighted the improvements of the design with their evolution. This will help me with the review of different designs, the development of plant requirements/standards and FAT completion. It will benefit my ongoing projects by making sure that contractors follow proper design in building and installation of process equipment. Sharing experiences with other participants was also particularly constructive all along the training. The training also covers design of building including material choices and the study of flow paths in the overall plant. This will help me lead projects with a better focus on hygienic design and therefor will profit Lactalis in the long run. The importance of the involvement of the different stakeholders (Sanitation, Production, Quality, Safety, Maintenance, etc.) in modifications and new installations were highlighted by the trainers and in the group activities. For these reasons this training matches completely my activities and fits Lactalis goals. I will share this knowledge with our team.

Joining the Hygienic Design Training with some of my colleagues from UVM and Cornell University, we all come from a background in educating the produce industry. We were really blown away by the training we received and are sharing learnings in a number of ways. I specifically enjoyed learning about specific equipment design elements that make equipment and facilities easy to clean. Taking a look at utilities with a close eye was new to me and was very interesting. Thank you for expanding our knowledge on this topic, it helped really spark ideas about how we can reduce risks and promote safe food in the produce industry.

Excellent trainers, hands-on knowledge, interactive workshops, interesting topics, what can you ask more? A must-have training, when it comes to Hygienic Design!
Mariján Róka, Sales Leader, FlexLink Systems Kft. -
Nicely separated topics. I came away with distinct learnings from each workshop, and I also came away with an understanding/path of how I can influence hygienic design in our facility. Great job!
