Allergen mapping is a part of allergen risk assessment and is an effective tool to identify and track allergens in your facility. An allergen map will provide a visual guide on the location of allergens and the areas and process steps most at risk from allergen cross contamination. This guide provides a suggested approach as well as worksheets that can support you through the processes involved. The process of allergen mapping and risk assessment is also an opportunity to challenge current processes and practices to identify improvements that may provide greater assurance that allergens are effectively controlled in your facility.
