Hygiene in manufacturing is vital for protecting public health and wellbeing, as well as ensuring product quality.

Obviously, different industry sectors also have different hygiene requirements depending on the nature of the products being manufactured. For example, hygiene is of paramount importance in food, beverage and pharmaceuticals production where products are ingested or applied directly to the body. Hygiene is less important in the automobile and building industries.

These different stages have different hygiene requirements, so appropriate procedures need to be established and monitored for each stage.
