Demonstrate the quality and integrity of your food packaging with Food Safety Systems Certification (FSSC) 22000 certification.
Packaging materials for food products must be functional, safe and not harm or alter the product. Around the world, food packaging is highly regulated, especially when it comes into contact with the food or beverage. During the manufacture of food packaging, businesses must consider a wide variety of potential hazards to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.
What are the benefits of FSSC 22000 certification?

- Glass
- Flexible & rigid plastics
