FSSC 22000 Management Systems
Food Safety System Certification 22000 (FSSC 22000) is an internationally accepted certification scheme. The entire supply chain is included in a single certification, making FSSC 22000 the most comprehensive and accessible food safety management system available.
Introduction to FSSC 22000 Certification
The Food Safety System Certification (FSSC 22000) scheme incorporates existing standards, including ISO 22000,PRPs, and HACCP. It offers a complete certification programmer, making it accessible for organizations across all sectors of the food supply chain.
FSSC 22000 is owned by an independent non-profit organization and is fully approved by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI). The scheme provides a certification model that can be used in the whole food supply chain. It can cover sectors where a technical specification for sector PRPs has been realized. The various categories covered under the scheme are farming of animals, food manufacturing, animal feed production, catering, retail & wholesale, transport and storage services, food packaging manufacturing, and production of biochemicals.
