ISO 22000 is a standard which supports you in managing food safety. The standard specifies the requirements for a food safety management system that involves interactive communication, system management, prerequisite programmes and HACCP principles.
ISO 28000 is an international supply chain security management system standard.
HACCP is a preventative approach to food safety and pharmaceutical safety which addresses physical, chemical, and biological hazards as a means of prevention rather than finished product inspection.
The Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 220 has been developed to specify requirements for prerequisite programs to assist in controlling food safety standards within the manufacturing processes of the food supply chain and is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 22000.
The British Retail Consortium (BRC) and the Institute of Packaging (IOP) together created a global food packaging standard. It can be applied by manufacturers and converters packaging which will be used by the food industry. Although developed in the UK, the standard is acknowledged internationally.
Essentially a combination of certification to ISO 22000 and PAS 220, FSSC 22000 is the first global food safety standard specifically targeted at the food manufacturing sector.
The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), designed to help ensure the safe delivery of food to consumers. In doing so, the GFSI recognises specific food safety management standards and schemes acceptable for certification.
