BS EN 14065:2016EN 14065:2016 (E) 5 Introduction The sensory cleanliness of processed tex
25、tiles is important for the laundry industry and its customers. Processed textiles should be visibly clean, free from stains and correctly dried or ironed; they should also be pleasant to the touch and fragrant or at least free from any unpleasant odours, etc. In addition, biocontamination control is
26、 important in many sectors, e.g. healthcare, food, pharmaceutical and medical device, but biocontamination of processed textiles is not easily verified in the laundry, and can have significant effects on people, products, materials and environments. Where laundries provide textile services in such c
27、ases, the processed textiles should be suitable for the intended use. The purpose of this standard is to provide for a management system that can effectively and consistently ensure provision of processed textiles with a microbiological quality appropriate for the intended use. Regardless of variati
28、ons between laundries, processes or products, all textiles returning to a laundry for processing are potentially contaminated. The objective of the laundering cycle is to achieve and then maintain the appropriate microbiological quality to the point of handover to customer control. The approach used
29、 in this standard is to apply recognized risk and process management principles, and to provide for a Risk Analysis and Biocontamination Control (RABC) system. The first core RABC element is a general Prerequisite Programme (PRP) which includes the conditions and good manufacturing practices necessa
30、ry to achieve and maintain the hygiene of the work environment, process and textiles. The second element is an operational PRP which includes the control measures that are most essential for protecting washed, dried textiles from re-contamination and cross-contamination until they are securely packe
31、d. The final RABC element is the seven RABC principles, which are applied to the most capable and crucial process steps, called Critical Control Points (CCPs) wherein textiles are thoroughly decontaminated. This can only be demonstrated through effective process validation. Where RABC implementation
32、 is complete and current, laundries can then assure all product released is suitable for its intended use through ongoing monitoring and verification that enables identification and remedial action for product from non-conforming processes. The approach and the principles employed in RABC are simila
33、r to those used in the sectors named above, e.g. Infection Control, Hazard Analysis And Critical Control Points (HACCP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). National and sector-specific guidance is available in many jurisdictions and can assist RABC implementation. Implementing RABC effectively in a
34、 laundry requires a sound understanding of the laundering process, and of factors specific to the product/laundry/customer/sector/jurisdiction. The annexes to this standard therefore present examples and guidance to laundries. All annexes to this standard are informative only. They are neither inten
35、ded nor suitable for specification or auditing. Annex A provides a description of the laundering process and an introduction to some of the key related issues. Annexes B to F relate in more detail to prerequisites, risk assessment, control measures, process parameters and validation approaches. Anne
36、x G provides cross references to EN ISO 9001 and to EN 14065:2016. Implementing RABC is an iterative process. Review during implementation will identify different strategies for controlling re-contamination in terms of investment, plant design, construction and operation. Laundry operations and the
37、market sector supplied will determine which is most appropriate. Review will also determine where further development is appropriate. BS EN 14065:2016EN 14065:2016 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard describes a risk management approach, called Risk Analysis and Biocontamination Control (RABC), des
38、igned to enable laundries to continuously assure the microbiological quality of laundry processed textiles. The RABC approach applies for laundry market sectors where it is necessary to control biocontamination, e.g. pharmaceuticals, medical devices, food, healthcare and cosmetics. The RABC approach
39、 excludes those aspects relating to worker safety and sterility of the final product. 2 Normative references Not applicable. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 acceptance criteria required output from a process, specified quantit
