This Standard applies to all rendering plants operating in Australia. Minimum requirements for quality assurance, construction and equipment and rendering operations are prescribed in this standard for the hygienic rendering of animal products.The overall goal of this standard is to provide framework for the production of safe rendered animal products by ensuring the hygienic rendering of biological material from animals. Rendering plants producing products for human consumption will also need to comply with food safety requirements applicable to those products.Requirements of this Standard are mandatory unless alternative compliance has been approved by the controlling Authority. Alternative compliance to that mandated in this standard may be used by operators providing compliance with the overall goal can be independently validated through the use of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) based programs.
