FSSC 22000

FSSC 22000 Certificate

FSSC 22000 is a food safety certification scheme based on the existing internationally recognized standard ISO 22000 and complemented by technical standards, such as ISO TS 22002-1 for food manufacturing and ISO TS 22002-4 for packaging manufacturing. It is also fully consistent with other standards, such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 (including the alignment with ISO High Level Structure). In addition to ISO 22000 and the industry relevant Pre-Requisite Program (PRP), FSSC 22000 contains requirements that help companies address risk in multiple areas from food fraud, food defense, food safety and quality culture, quality control, allergen management and environmental monitoring programs. The latest version has also added requirements on food loss and waste to help companies deliver on their UN SDG commitments.
FSSC 22000 specifically targets the food, feed and packaging manufacturing sector as well as the storage and transport, catering and retail/wholesale sectors. While the first editions of FSSC 22000 only applied to food manufacturers, the scope for current version has been extended to other segments of the supply chain, and it’s recognized by Global Food Safety Initiative – GFSI.
When already certified against ISO 22000, an organization only needs an additional review against technical specifications for sector PRPs, and the FSSC additional requirements to meet all scheme requirements.
The requirements are related to the food safety management system and the HACCP system (Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Points). Furthermore, a voluntary additional Quality Module is available, based on ISO 9001 and, if a company is manufacturing both food and non-food packaging material, the additional module HPC420 if available for the non-food packaging material.
