In 1996, the HACCP Concept for the production of baking ingredients became effective at IREKS.
The HACCP Concept describes systematic methods on how to recognize all critical points, i.e. hazardous procedures or production steps in our food production process and how to check and control them, so that health risks for the consumer can be prevented as far as possible.
These hazards can be of a biological nature (e.g. micro-organisms), of a chemical nature (e.g. residues of pesticides or heavy metals), or of a physical nature (e.g. stones, glass, or other foreign objects). At IREKS, procedures for dealing with each individual critical point have been established in order to eliminate danger to the product and, consequently, to the consumer.
With the HACCP Concept, we document for our customers the fact that we manufacture our baking ingredients with great care and do everything in our power to produce high quality and safe foodstuffs.
