The integration in the Coca-Cola system means the compliance of demands and rigorous standards and processes to guarantee the consistency of food safety and the quality of all our drinks. To do this, the Coca-Cola system is run according to The Coca-Cola Management System (TCCMS), a demanding program developed by The Coca-Cola Company that is applied throughout the world to assure homogenous quality standards in the production and distribution of their products. This system is applied in the Industrial area as well as those of Distribution and Market and Technical refrigeration service.

Starting in 1997, Cobega has implemented a Quality Management System that fulfills the requirements of the international ISO 9001 standard and has recently implemented in all its production centers a Food Safety Management System in compliance with the international ISO 22.000 standard.

These systems are founded on a series of procedures and programs that allow us to control all our processes from the receipt of raw materials to the distribution of our products, assuring their safety and quality:

  • Pre-requisites program that guarantees a hygienic environment in the manufacturing plants and controls the cleaning and disinfection systems, the building, design and maintenance of the equipment and facilities.

  • Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP). Identifies, evaluates and controls the hazards relevant to food safety through the establishment of process control systems whose objective is prevention.

  • Process control.All the Cobega plants have their own analysis laboratories and modern online control equipment that guarantee, at all times, the parameters of food quality and safety during manufacturing and packaging.

  • Traceability.Allows the tracking of any of our products at any time and the reconstruction of the manufacturing, packaging, storage and distribution conditions.More information
