With the standards in Food Safety and FSSC 22000, Thai Glico chooses red sanitary pallets from the UPR company.
In the food production process, cleanliness is the first priority. Thai Glico pays attention to the quality of every product that is involved in the production line because food safety and FSSC 22000 certification have to be taken into account, for which UPR products are a very good answer in this respect.
What is FSSC 22000?
FSSC 22000 is a food safety certification system for the food and beverage manufacturing industry. This standard verifies the food safety system and shows that the production process has strict food safety controls and takes human health into their main consideration.
The red sanitary pallets are the best choice for use in the food manufacturing industry with dimensions of 1000 x 1200 x 160 mm. The surface of the pallet is smooth and the legs are Skid (E), so there is no accumulation of dust and dirt inside the pallet. It can also be compatible with the use of Stacker forklifts, which are the types of forklifts used by Thai Glico.
