HACCP becomes BRC

Hygiene standards are essential for the food-paper sector. This also applies to BRANOpac.

BRC

For many years, BRANOpac has been a manufacturer of papers from the food industry which are used for cooking, baking, steaming, separating or for numerous other applications protected under the brand Blechrein (see also:www.blechrein.de/de/). Due to decades of experience and know-how in production processes, the topics of hygiene and safety have always been a priority. BRANOpac has always been working after the HACCP concept – “Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points“ - a quality tool designed for food production and handling.

In the course of the last year, BRANOpac has decided to obtain additional certification for the high standard of hygiene that has been used in the production for several years. Just a few weeks ago, the DQS Frankfurt audited the food sector, this time also with the addition of the "BRC GLOBAL STANDARD FOR PACKAGING AND PACKAGING MATERIALS" as part of the annual audits and BRANOpac was subsequently awarded the "BRC Packaging Certificate”.

The BRC certificate is a food hygiene certification recognized worldwide by the GFSI, “Global Food Safety Initiative”. It is  popular on an international basis and recognized by customers worldwide. Compared to the HACCP certificate, the company achieved a significant increase.

As a result of the audit, BRANOpac GmbH in Lich was rated top grade A, which underlines the high standard once again. Additionally, the company has been tested in the category of "High Hygiene Risk", which expresses that it can withstand the high BRC requirements for direct food contact.

A high quality standard is also anchored in the corporate DNA of BRANOpac. Being able to always provide this high standard in the form of flawless products and an integrated service portfolio is the top priority for the company. Not without a reason, BRANOpac promises: "We protect your products - maintaining the value of good products."
