As such, many retail organisations now demand that their commercial relationships with suppliers are underpinned by documented proof of a systematic approach to hygiene regimes as an adjunct to standard legal requirements. However, the Food Standards Agency estimate that up to 50 per cent of all food manufacturing facilities receive little, ineffective or no guidance, assistance or support in organising, documenting and management of their hygiene systems. Selden Research is a member of the food and drink industry research organisation Campden BRI and has worked closely with this important establishment in the development of the IFHM (Integrated Food Hygiene Management) system. As an integrated combination of cleaning products and easy-to-use online documentation and recording tools, IFHM dramatically reduces the time required to attain and maintain an audit-ready status while also providing a professional framework for you to build your hygiene approach around. Additional technical support for IFHM is provided through Selden’s UKAS-accredited laboratory and knowledgeable sales advisors. Crucially, IFHM is totally tailored to the needs of your facility and supported by carefully selected Selden product distributors who provide ongoing and frequent contact and support. How IFHM works IFHM supports not only the management of cleaning regimes within the food manufacturing and processing sectors but also implementation. An online system with 24-hour access, IFHM provides all necessary documentation for your cleaning schedules. Staff training matrices cover both COSHH awareness and task method training and will quickly identify any gaps within the core competencies of your staff.

The IFHM product range is comprehensive without being confusing. Each product has been formulated to provide the best possible results at low, economical dilutions. We are aware that many companies operate with limited resources in terms of cleaning operatives as well as being required to fit cleaning schedules around production needs. As a result, all IFHM products are formulated to minimise required chemical contact times thus allowing hygiene regimes to be completed faster without compromising cleaning quality.
