## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Alphia, Inc
- Inspection Date: 2023-06-08
- Product Type: veterinary
- Office Name: Philadelphia District Office
- Summary: Alphia, Inc. in Hazle Township, PA, a manufacturer of dry pet food, was cited for failing to identify and implement adequate preventive controls for metal contamination. The firm's hazard analysis did not include a process preventive control for metal, and their metal detector verification procedures were found to be ineffective in detecting metal fragments placed on top of product bags. This indicates a significant deficiency in ensuring the safety of their dog and cat kibble products.
