ISO 22000

What is ISO 22000?

ISO 22000 is an international standard that defines the requirements of a food safety management system covering all sizes of all organizations throughout the food chain.

This standard can be applied independently to other management systems or integrated with existing food safety systems such as, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Certification.

This standard can also be applied to related organisations such as feed mills, producers of equipment, packaging materials, cleaning agents, additives and ingredients. It may also be applied to service providers.

Why should my organization be certified to ISO 22000?

Benefits of ISO 22000 includes: –

Demonstrate assurance in food safety and ongoing implementation of the system.
Proof that the organisation prioritises food safety. The food safety management system is well-planned, monitored, audited (internally and externally) and with feedback provided to decision-makers.
ISO 22000 includes and goes beyond existing HACCP programs. It contains management system elements that are essential for a systemic food safety system in organisations.
Facilitates shared commitment from the external providers within the supply chain to assure food safety and to prevent food fraud.
