In food production, companies face the daily challenge of complying with the highest hygiene and safety standards. Especially in bakeries or in the production of light-colored foods, small foreign objects such as paper residues can lead to quality problems and production interruptions. An efficient solution that increases both safety and productivity is the targeted use of colored food-grade paper.
Key points about colored food-grade paper
- High visibility: Blue food-grade paper stands out immediately in light-colored baked goods and makes it easier to spot paper residue.
- Greater safety: Colored food-grade paper reduces the risk of foreign objects going undetected.
- Efficient processes: Faster removal of paper residue saves time, reduces waste, and increases production quality.
- Versatile: Blue food-grade paper is suitable for baked goods, confectionery, pasta, and many other food products.
Customer's problem: Paper residue in light-colored baked goods
A customer who produces white or light-colored baked goods was faced with a recurring problem: occasionally, paper residue from conventional, uncolored food-grade paper was found in the products. This residue was difficult for production staff to detect, which made removal unnecessarily difficult and increased the risk of quality deterioration.
The consequences: delays in the production process, potential complaints, and increased quality control costs. The problem clearly showed that a simple adjustment to the material could bring about significant improvements in production safety.
Blue food-grade paper as a solution
The solution lay in the use of blue food-grade paper – specifically the product “Blechrein Ice.” Blue is unique in food production because it is virtually non-existent in natural foods. This makes every piece of paper immediately visible, even in light-colored doughs or baked goods.
By using colored food-grade paper, production employees can identify and remove paper scraps much more quickly. This reduces sources of error, minimizes downtime, and improves overall safety in the production process.
Advantages of colored food-grade paper
The use of colored food-grade paper offers several key advantages:
- Increased visibility: Unlike white paper, blue paper immediately catches the eye in light-colored foods.
- Faster inspection: Production employees can identify and remove foreign objects more quickly.
- Improved hygiene: The reduced likelihood of paper residue going undetected increases product safety.
- Simple process: No additional effort is required in production, as the paper can be replaced directly.
- Long-term benefits: Less waste and optimized production processes save time and money.
Result: Blue food paper ensures an optimized production process
After switching to blue food paper, the customer was able to significantly increase production efficiency. Foreign objects were immediately detected and quickly removed, which ensured product quality and increased hygiene standards. Employees reported that handling was much easier because the paper was now clearly visible.
Other areas of application for colored food papers
In addition to light-colored baked goods, colored food-grade paper can also be used effectively in other production areas:
- Confectionery, pastries, and pasta Other areas of application for colored food papers
- Frozen products and ready meals
- Canned goods or products with white/light-colored surfaces
In all areas, colored paper supports the rapid identification of foreign objects and ensures more efficient quality management.
