What You Need to Know About Bulk Juice Transport
Bulk juice transportation can be challenging, so be sure to know the requirements to transport juice.
There are three essential parts to in bulk juice transportation. First, it has to be done over long distances effectively. Second, it must be done according to the correct applicable standards. Finally, it has to be done hygienically. Juice for transport is meant to be consumed, and it must be contained, packed, loaded, shipped and delivered in a way that keeps the consumer safe.
Kan-Haul has the answers to these questions, and is eager to help you get your bulk juice transport needs met.
FDA requirements on bulk juice shipping
The shipping of liquid for consumption is one of the most tightly regulated in the country. FDA rules and regulations govern every step of the process, from pick up at the producer’s site, to transport or intermediate transport, storage and further transport to the final destination.
The FDA outlines a hazard analyses focusing on five areas of concern with bulk transport: 1) sanitation operations, 2) equipment design, 3) equipment maintenance, 4) employee practices, and 5) loading and unloading areas.
They recommend control measures to use in juice transport in an effort to avoid contamination or recontamination of juice during bulk juice transportation.
The guidance covers juice products, containers used in juice transport, and related equipment used in the process of transporting juice.
Kan-Haul has done its due diligence on the regulations that apply to this multi-step process as well as studying our own methods to ensure that we exceed those standards.
Sanitizing processes during bulk juice transport
The guiding principle of almost all the standards pertains to cleanliness. Because the product is meant to be consumed by humans it needs to be free on contamination with pathogens or any impurities. Sanitary transportation is necessary for the health of the community and business success.
Any equipment and tanks exposed to the liquids must be washed, rinsed and sanitized according to a designated frequency schedule.
