Some of these aspects are surface material and finish, gasket material and gasket design, welding quality and welding location, cleaning procedure, and internal design of the equipment. This chapter focuses on the relationship between flow of detergent during cleaning and, as a direct consequence, the design of the equipment. At first glance, flow of detergent might not be the most important aspect in cleaning; nevertheless, it is an aspect that is relatively cheap to optimize through design consideration. Additionally, increased focus on environmental concerns (and taxes) related to energy consumption and use of chemicals has made the obvious choice of increasing the temperature or use of harsher chemicals unattractive from an economical point of view—improved cleaning is obtained more cheaply through proper design of closed equipment.

The aim is to increase the flexibility and the variability in the production as well as the focus on freshness and nutritional status of the foods produced. Hence focus is turned to time and work planning in the production, as well as the use of semi prepared elements and the awareness that the production and distribution are means of satisfying the consumer at the time when the food is served. To do this, with out increases in production costs, the production must be highly planned and contain as few steps as possible. This can be optained when basing the planning on the philosophies contained in Lean Thinking.
