Does anyone have any suggestions for "sticky" floor mats to place outside the entrance to our finished packaging room and just prior to entering the changing area as well? I have found a number of viable options but want something with a proven track record. 

 

The less expensive, the better, but durability and functionality take priority.

 

I want to ensure that our facility is meeting the standards required for "high risk" transition. (this is not the only control, just an additional one)

 

Thank you for your help!

Hi, FosTerHome;

What type of industry are you in, and what is the specific requirements?

Here are some threads discussing the same topic:

BRC Category 15 Dried Foods. I will have to check on requirements before responding, to ensure my source is correct.

Requirements are vague it seems. The goal is to keep this packaging room free from any potential microbial or allergen contamination source. During the bagging process, the bag is momentarily open before it goes through the bag sealer. We have the entire packaging process in a room with positive air pressure and have built a wash station and PPE change station just prior to entry. The room is not truly a "high care" area but is being treated as such to meet customer requirements.

 

We do not issue "company" footwear. Due to the inherent risk and lack of foot wash stations we would like to control this potential source of microbial contamination by the most economic means available. The airborne allergen risk has been mitigated through double doors, positive air pressure, and PPE changeover.
