ISO 22000
About the standard
Food safety is a global concern. The ISO 22000 standard maps out how an organisation can demonstrate its ability to control safety hazards to ensure that food is safe. We certify a vast range of ISO 22000 categories worldwide.
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP)
ISO 22000 can be used by any organisation within the food supply chain. The standard integrates the principles of a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system developed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. By means of auditable requirements, it combines the HACCP plan with prerequisite programmes as well as other food safety system requirements.
