ID 2650 | 26.05.2016
The objective of cleaning validation is to prove that the equipment is consistently cleaned of product, microbial residues, chemicals and soiling, including allergens to an acceptable level, to prevent possible crosscontamination of hazards between products.
This document focuses on the overall concept of cleaning validation and is intended as a general guideline for use by food manufacturers and inspectors.
It is not the intention to be prescriptive in specific validation requirements.
