176 EHEDG Subgroups
• Food grade lubricants
• Materials
• Test methods
• Welding
• Cleaning and disinfection
• Packaging machines
• Seals
A questionnaire with 47 questions was developed and is
used for the participants’ final exam.
Timescale to publishing
We are confident to have a full set of training materials ready
in 2013. This will enable us to run the three day Advanced
Course in Hygienic Engineering and Design globally.
At present, we are offering the EHEDG training course in the
following languages and countries:
• English, German, Spanish
• in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and the
USA.
Segments of the EHEDG training material are used by our
authorised EHEDG trainers globally at seminars, symposia,
workshops or universities where EHEDG is involved.
Special service
All authorised EHEDG trainers as well as all those
participants who have successfully attended the EHEDG
Advanced Course in Hygienic Engineering and Design are
listed on the EHEDG web page.

EHEDG Subgroup “Valves”
Ulf Thießen, e-mail: ulf.thiessen@gea.com
Since the formation of the Subgroup in September 2009,
the Subgroup saw some member fluctuation but meanwhile
a consolidation has been achieved. The group has 14
regular members with an average of eight participants at the
meetings.
This manageable size led to a rapid progress of work in the
group and by the end of 2011 we succeeded to finalize the
revision of
• DOC 14: Requirements for valves in hygienic and
aseptic processes (4th edition, 2011)
The Guideline is currently being subedited for use of correct
English and will afterwards be translated into various
languages.
The subsequent task of the Subgroup is now the revision of
• DOC 20: Hygienic design and safe use of double-seat
mixproof valves (July 2000)
This work has already been started in 2012.
Due to the complexity of the topic and the long period
between its first release in 2000 and today, we have to bear
in mind that many changes both in market structure and
technology for hygienic and aseptic valves have to be dealt
with.
This will lead to a complete restructuring of the Document.
