Developed in 2013 and updated in 2018, the international Association for Soaps, Detergents and Maintenance Products (Detergents Europe, formerly A.I.S.E), in collaboration with AMFEP, has developed “Guidelines for the safe handling of enzymes in detergent manufacturing”, which provides very detailed guidelines for control of enzyme exposure in production facilities.
The guidelines were developed for the detergent industry, but the principles stated are generally applicable and should be used by all industries.
Further to the publication of the guidelines, other training materials for workers / operators were developed, such as a poster on the safe handling of enzymes and a series of webinars. All materials are available on the Detergents Europe website.
