ISO 22000 is a Food Safety Management System that can be applied to any organization in the food chain, from farm to fork. Becoming certified to ISO 22000 allows a company to demonstrate that it has a food safety management system in place, giving customers confidence in the product. This assurance is increasingly important as customers demand safe food and processors require safe ingredients from suppliers.
As populations have increased and become more urbanized, complex food supply chains have emerged. Between the farmer and the consumer are companies that ship, store and mill grain; bag, store and ship flour; mix flour with other ingredients to make dough; bake bread and package it; and store and ship the bread to market.
A food safety management system like ISO 22000 helps manage risks along this chain.
ISO 22000 integrates several components.
ISO 22000 is a truly international standard suitable for any business in the entire food chain, including related organizations such as producers of equipment, packaging materials, cleaning agents, additives and ingredients. ISO 22000:2018 can also be used by companies seeking to integrate their quality management system (for example ISO 9001) with their food safety management system.
