ISO 22000:2015 – Food safety management systems

The certified company is able to demonstrate and guarantee the hygiene of the articles it produces and their suitability for contact with food in full respect of the standards and laws relating to this subject, at all levels and across all processes, guaranteeing the safety of the end consumer.
The certified company is one which has made food safety its workplace philosophy, as it has an awareness of the risks for food safety, and for this reason it manages these in an efficient manner so as to prevent any incidents throughout the process and with a view to introducing a safe product onto the market. The safety of the packaging of foodstuffs, for those operating in the sector, is today an indispensable requirement, and to be able to be certain of one’s own packaging, for a food company, is of fundamental importance.

It allows all the companies which are involved in the food sector to identify with precision the risks to which they are exposed and to manage them efficiently, to prevent the occurrence of incidents throughout the whole sector and to verify system adequacy in terms of the regulations set down. This standard sets itself up as a point of reference for companies for the application of European Community regulations in matters of hygiene and food safety.
The standard places an emphasis on:
• Interactive communication, between the relevant company and the various actors upstream and downstream in the supply chain
• Its integration in to the Company Management System
• HACCP principles, technical specifications for the relevant sectors and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) for the sector.
• Management of the dangers for hygiene safety by using specific procedures of operational control.
What are the benefits of the standard?
• tangible and demonstrable improvement of performance in the context of agri-food safety
• increased guarantee of conformity with the regulations
• flexibility of the standard in relation to the specific business needs of the company
• improved understanding and identification of the actual and potential risks in the area of food safety
• respect of the constraints set out in the applicable regulations
