FSSC 22000: Certification for Food Packaging Material manufacturing The safety of food packaging materials is integral to the delivery of safe food! The food industry is dependent on safe

and innovative packaging and packaging materials to ensure the transportation, storage, supply and delivery of food

and food ingredients. Food packaging manufacturers are an important constituent of the global food supply chain, and

as such are subject to the increasing demands of customers, consumers and legislation.

Developed to meet the needs of the global supply chain, FSSC 22000 delivers a GFSI benchmarked certification scheme

which incorporates the requirements of the ISO standards and pre requisite programs (ISO 22000, ISO 22003, ISO/TS

22002-1 and PAS 223) for the certification of food safety management systems in the manufacture and provision of food

packaging.

The Role of the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI)ISO 22000 provides the specification for an international

management system for food safety across the supply chain,

PAS 223 was developed to specifically address food safety

issues in the manufacture and design of packaging materials

by a Steering Group, consisting of leading global packaging

and food manufacturing companies.

FSSC 22000 provides the specifications required to meet the

standards set by GFSI Guidance Document version 6.

The PAS 223 – ISO 22000 combination alone DOES NOT meet

the GFSI requirements1. However when used in conjunction

with FSSC 22000, the combination achieves the requirements

of the GFSI benchmarked standards. Packaging manufacturers

that already hold an ISO 22000 and PAS 223 certificate can

upgrade to a full FSSC 22000 certificate. The only step that

needs to be taken is for the FSSC 22000 licensed certification

body to validate whether the previous ISO 22000 and PAS 223

certification meets the FSSC 22000 requirements.

FSSC 22000 is the fastest growing GFSI benchmarked food safety certification scheme With 7000 certificates issued worldwide,

over 900 have been issued for the certification

of food packaging manufacture. Leading

companies are now requesting certification to

a GFSI recognized scheme for their packaging

suppliers.

1 The GFSI Guidance Document and the ISO 22000 standard are written and constructed differently. The Guidance Document is not a standard by itself, but sets out the mini-mum requirements for the delivery of conforming schemes and full compliance by the scheme is required to achieve GFSI benchmarking.
