Practical resources built for food manufacturing engineering

The AFME Resource Library brings together practical templates, tools and working documents designed to support engineers across food and drink manufacturing. Here you will find resources covering maintenance and reliability, engineering audits, asset management, CAPEX and projects, health and safety, food safety and compliance, utilities and energy, automation and controls, engineering management, and people development.

Resources are intended to be practical — documents that can be downloaded, adapted and used in real engineering environments.

MEMBER CONTRIBUTIONS

Share a resource with the AFME community

AFME members are encouraged to contribute. If you have developed a template, checklist, audit, calculation tool, spreadsheet, procedure or other engineering resource that you believe other members would benefit from, you can submit it for inclusion in the Resource Library.

Tell us what it is, how you use it and where it may be useful. Once reviewed and accepted by the AFME team, it can be published in the library and credited as Submitted by [member name] where you are happy to be identified.

Please only submit material that you have the right to share. Resources containing proprietary company information, copyrighted templates or other third-party intellectual property will not be accepted unless explicit permission has been granted by the relevant company, author or rights holder.
