The BRCGS Standard for Packaging Materials, now at Issue 6, applies for both food and non-food applications. This globally recognised Standard increased customer confidence with its clearly defined risk-based requirements, which are divided up in to the following sections:

  • Senior management commitment
  • Hazard and risk management
  • Product and safety quality management
  • Site standards
  • Product and process control
  • Personnel
  • Requirements for traded products

In addition to the core Standard, we also offer certification against the Plastic Pellet Loss Prevention voluntary module.

Pre-assessments

If you are new to the assessment process for any of the Standards provided by UK Food Certification and are looking to have certification against the Standard, you may wish to consider a pre-assessment. These visits can be beneficial as our assessors will identify aspects of the Standard that you may not be conforming to, giving you the ability and time to prepare ahead of your full certificated assessment.
