Hello,
Really hoping someone could help me with this...our company is moving forward with trying to break into the retail market. Our company plans to have its seasonings sold to retail grocery chains. The seasoning will be packaged in 160ML Glass Bottles with wood caps. I am looking at updating our HACCP Plan. The spices will be filled through automation into the glass bottles. The CCPs we have included are as follows:
- Visual inspection of glass jars prior to filling
- visual inspection every 4 hours during packaging run to ensure no breakage
- metal detection at the end of packaging run
Are there any other CCPs we should consider that are cost-effective? I have looked into the Flexxray machine, but this is very expensive for our company...is there any other CCPs we should take into account concerning glass and other foreign matter.
