From raw material to specification
Each step from harvest to packing affects appearance and product consistency. This guide follows the general stages to explain how raw material becomes a clearly described product managed against specifications.
Harvest timing should match target sizes, product format and intake arrangements. Sorting raw material supports processing plans and reduces differences between product expectations and the actual lot.
Intake records identify the source lot, handover time, material condition and transport conditions. This information supports preparation decisions and links to finished-product records.
Depending on the product, handling may include cleaning, whole-fish preparation or filleting. For grouper fillets, skin, bones, cut weight and trimming should appear on the same specification sheet.
IQF freezes individual product units separately rather than as a joined block. Separation supports portioning at use; suitability still depends on raw material, handling and storage conditions.
Packaging and labels create commercial units that can be counted. Checks should connect product name, weight, lot code and carton quantity with specifications to reduce delivery discrepancies.
Storage and dispatch coordinate transport timing, product conditions and handover points. Temperature records and lot information help recipients assess the journey and clarify unresolved details.
