Plant Design
The primary aspects in plant design are to create:
- an economical and modern plant that makes profitable production possible
- a dynamic, flexible plant that can be adjusted to requirements from the market or from the public
- a satisfactory level of sanitary standards in selection of machinery and building materials.
- a good and safe workplace with good working conditions and a comfortable indoor climate
- a good geographical location in terms of logistics and natural and human resources
- a plant that has a good reputation locally (concerning for instance odour and noise).
- a plant that may contribute to and support marketing of the product (a high class product, cleanliness, freshness etc.)
- a plant that ensures food safety and safe food handling techniques (also in relation to HACCP)
- energy-efficient production
- operator and maintenance-friendly design
- production methods that strengthen consumers’ trust in products from the factory.
- a visitor-friendly design
