This result was achieved during AVA’s annual food safety audit and continues the plant’s outstanding record since it began operations in 2007.
All food processing facilities in Singapore are categorised by the AVA Food Safety Excellence Scheme using four grades ? A (Excellent), B (Good), C (Average) and D (Pass) ? which are based on compliance with strict hygiene and food safety standards.
To ensure that customers always receive a product of consistent quality and of the highest purity standards, Tate & Lyle’s Splenda Sucralose plant operates a zero defect policy, using a 50 point in-process checking system, supported by focused service, absolute traceability and on-going security of supply, the company said.
Jim Cornelissen, plant manager of the Splenda Sucralose plant in Singapore, said: “Grade A status acknowledges our team’s total commitment to industry excellence and we are proud to have achieved the highest grade every year since our first audit. The A grading reflects our continuously improving quality procedures and recognises our exemplary production methods.”
