Scope

Standardization of individual machine types and their accessories used in the foodstuffs supply chain, as well as processing systems and complete production lines consisting of these machines. All these machines process various raw materials and ingredients into intermediate food products and/or ready-to-eat food.

The standards to be created in this TC deal with specific and typical aspects of machines used in the food industry. These aspects include – but are not limited to – health and safety at work for operators (safety of food machinery) and consumer health and safety (food safety). Standards of this TC also focus on hygienic design principles.

Excluded are the fields covered by ISO/TC 23 (Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry), ISO/TC 283 (Occupational health and safety management) and ISO/TC 293 (Feed machinery)
