GOOD WAREHOUSE PRACTICES Premises | Chillers & Freezers | Storage Condition Transport | Personnel Hygiene | Pest Control Premises The food storage facilities should be located away from objectionable odours, smoke, dust and other contaminants. The warehouse should be of sufficient size to allow handling and storage of food products in a manner that does not result in product contamination. The warehouse should be properly ventilated to prevent condensation. Premises Openings leading to exterior should be meshed to prevent the entry of pests. Windows should be kept closed or in some instances, installed with insect-mesh screens. Floors should be evenly non-slip, graded to prevent stagnation water and drained off to outlets trapped protected by a grille. Premises Walls should be made of smooth, durable, impervious, crack-resistant materials that can be cleaned easily. Lightings are to be enclosed with shatterproof covers so as to ensure that food or food package surfaces are not contaminated by breakages. Chillers & Freezers The recommended temperature of the chillers is 4°C and below, and that of freezers is -18°C or below. be Chillers & freezers must not overloaded beyond their designated capacity. erected Adequate racks should inside be chillers & freezers to allow proper storage of food products.
