The agri-food sector is one of the vastest fields. And to work there, you have to be uncompromising on hygiene since you will be handling food for other people. This is why there are work clothes specially designed for this sector of activity.
The standard applicable to industries and professions in the food industry
As a reminder, the main activity in the food industry is the processing of raw materials intended for consumption. This sector includes industries of all kinds, but mainly fisheries, livestock and agriculture industries. As a result, there are many workers each dedicated to well-defined tasks. We can see technicians, production managers, engineers, food manufacturers, cheese makers, production line operators, technical sales representatives, research and development technicians and even so many more fascinating professions. others. And all these people must have the equipment necessary to do their job. The 2005 ISO 22000 standard, which is voluntary and concerns the management of food safety, requires the entire agri-food sector to use the method to ensure food hygiene.
What is the appropriate agri-food work outfit?
Any worker handling food must respectcleanliness and wear suitable agrifood work clothes. In the agri-food sector, however, there are different kinds of protective clothing. We can list work jackets, full coveralls, gloves, trousers, hoodies and of course the blouse.
Regulatory work clothes
The ideal in food factories is the combination. This professional outfit which consists of a single piece is very effective. It completely covers your whole body from risks and accidents at work. Sometimes there are even combinations that cover your hands. They are all very strong, so they do not wear out easily. With combinations that do not cover the hands; we wear gloves, food safety shoes, headdresses for women and beard covers if necessary for men. Most wetsuits are also equipped with a zip that runs along the leg to the foot to facilitate donning.
To keep the neutrality of your outfits, it is preferable that they are white or if possible clear. Try to change your suit every day to prevent contamination that could affect your health.
According to the work areas, the worker must change clothes because the clothes are different in certain sectors due to the degree of risk present there. The color of the combinations helps to differentiate these areas.
The different components of outfits
The classic suit is made of cotton. But because of the risks involved, changes in climate and other exposures; they have been replaced by waterproof models. They are easier to distinguish day and night and there are also fireproof suits for people who used to work in places with high temperatures.
The gloves and sleeves for handling consumer foods are frequently made of latex or non-allergenic fabrics. They are therefore very resistant , non-absorbent, non-porous and with great elasticity.
As for the safety shoes in this branch, they must comply with the standards EN 20345: 2011 S2 SRC. The shoe must have a protective shell that would withstand a pressure of 200 joules. And according to this standard, there are 6 main classes defining the use for which safety shoes are intended. In our case, it is the S2 which is made for an environment with high humidity and when hydrocarbons or mineral oils are present on the place of work. And then, the SRC is an additional standard with non-slip soles depending on the type of floor.
Outfits that make you feel comfortable
All of these garments are designed primarily for cleanliness and safety; but you also need comfortable clothes. Staff must be equipped with suitable clothing for their job and its constraints. Each sector requires outfits that meet specific criteria. They can be easily washed with soap and water. The quality of the materials that make up your work suits have been chosen on purpose to ensure that you are comfortable at all times of your working day.
