Product quality is a top concern for the food and beverage industry, as plants need to follow ever more stringent quality and regulatory requirements. Calibration is important as it ensures the quality and safety of the process. Food and beverage plants operate to certain international quality systems such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. ISO 9001 is a standard that ensures a manufacturing plant maintains an effective quality assurance system. ISO 14001 focuses on environmental management systems.
Calibration of plant assets on a regular basis can assist food and beverage plants comply with these international standards. The risk of not calibrating on a regular basis can lead to a manufacturing plant sending inferior products to their customers. Calibration on a regular basis can help reduce wastage as there is a higher accuracy in the manufacturing process.
