PN-EN ISO 22000

Food safety management systems – Requirements for any organizations in the food chain

The ISO 22000 standard „Food safety management systems – Requirements for any organizations in the food chain”  is the first international standard to introduce globally unified and harmonized standard in the scope of strategic elements of food safety and hygiene management.

This standard is based on the rules of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) and on the quality management system PN-EN ISO 9001.

The requirements of PN-EN ISO 22000 can be applied by organisations involved throughout the food chain, i.e.:

• producers of food
• producers of feed and pet food
• producers of chemical and bio-chemical products including food, feed and pet food additives
• producers of packaging materials that come into contact with food, feed and pet food
• catering organisations
• farmers
• livestock farmers
• organisations providing support services including water supply, pest control, cleaning services and waste management
• service organizations dealing with storage, transport and distribution
• producers of support equipment including equipment for food, feed, pet food or packaging processing
