Maintaining hygienic, well-engineered, and properly maintained food packaging units is essential for business prosperity and consumer safety. Regular inspections, thorough sanitation, and precise engineering all contribute to a seamless and secure food packaging process.
The importance of maintaining food production facilities
Preventive maintenance (PM) schedules provide a roadmap to address these issues, ensuring equipment reliability, upholding food safety standards, reducing downtime, and preventing breakdowns.
Just as we maintain our homes, regular maintenance and sanitation of packaging equipment is crucial. Inspections and servicing prevent failures that could compromise product integrity, extend equipment life, and avoid costly replacements, leading to long-term savings.
Econo-Pak’s Preventative Maintenance/Machine Sanitation Manager, Scott Small, adheres to stringent protocols to ensure our packaging operations remain in optimal condition to minimize downtime of your product.
