ISO 22000:2018 Certification and Food Safety Management System | Primecert Global

ISO 22000:2018 is an international standard for Food Safety Management Systems. It specifies the requirements that organizations operating within the food chain need to meet in order to manage food safety risks effectively. Its primary objective is to ensure that food is safe for consumption.

The principle behind a Food Safety Management System is to identify, assess, and control potential hazards at every stage of the food chain. It covers all stages, from general hygiene and employees’ personal hygiene requirements to the handling of raw materials and the delivery of the finished product to the consumer.

The benefits include producing safe food products, ensuring compliance with national and international legislation and regulatory requirements, providing customers with products that meet high food safety standards, and managing processes more efficiently and safely. ISO 22000:2018 is applicable to all organizations involved in the food chain.
