PennWhite India recently welcomed two specialists from our UK plant to our new manufacturing facility in Chennai, India, to assist in the implementation of its quality and food safety systems.
David Bullock (Quality & Food Safety Manager) worked with the PennWhite India team and local consultants to ensure that the plant will shortly be ready for the certification of its Quality Management System to ISO 9001. David also helped the local team prepare for upcoming halal and kosher audits and worked on the site’s HACCP program, the foundation of its food safety system.
Technical Manager Dr David Kennedy spent time supporting the team commissioning the brand-new laboratory and ensuring product release and acceptance standards align with those established in the UK. During the week in Chennai, he also met with colleagues and customers to discuss the varied applications and the advanced technical characteristics of our foam control agents.
Commissioning of the plant is now complete and a grand opening will take place on 29th of April. This state-of-the-art facility will enable PennWhite to serve the growing needs of the Indian market for high performance foam control.
