Sanitizing containers…question

Posted by RKB on October 3, 2018 at 12:12 am

I saw someone somewhere once say that contract manufacturers do not sanitize containers prior to filling. Is this true?

we don’t, there is enough preservative in the bulk material.
Only for sterile products, we have sanitization steps in place

the contract manufacturers I used to work for never did

however, we routinely took a TVC on every production run to check the product wasn’t getting contaminated in the process of being filled
