Welcome to "Hygienic Design"

Hygienic Design covers the design of equipment and production units which are both easy to clean and in accordance with respective hygienic design guidelines. Particularly the design considers requirements on cleanability to avoid all areas where soil can accumulate and therefore be a hazard to the product (e.g. food).
To ensure safe cleaning of production lines it is essential to have easy-to-clean equipment.
Hygienic Design plays an important role to ensure product quality.
