HACCP and agri-food standards
HACCP and compliance
The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system is a tool used by companies in the agri-food sector to guarantee food safety.
This system was originally developed in the 1960s to produce safe and healthy food for a US space programme.
Based on prevention and risk analysis, this system enables food companies to identify critical control points (CCPs) for physical (e.g. glass), chemical (e.g. pesticides) and microbiological (e.g. bacteria responsible for food poisoning) risks, before they compromise food safety.
By law, all European food companies must introduce and apply procedures based on the principles of the HACCP system. The implementation of an HACCP system involves first and foremost the application of good hygiene practice (GHP).
BPH covers, for example, personal hygiene and staff training; cleaning and disinfection; maintenance and upkeep; pest control; facilities and equipment; premises and structures; preservation, distribution and transport; and waste management.
Stricter hygiene rules apply to primary producers such as farmers.
Standards often provide manufacturers with the necessary information on the procedures to be put in place.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO COMMISSION OR USE A MACHINE WHICH DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE REGULATIONS.

agri-food standards
Food standards are generally drawn up by national or international bodies, such as the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO), which are specifically responsible for developing standards and/or food safety, or by the food industry itself, through a representative body such as the British Retail Consortium (BRC).
Agri-food standards play a key role in helping agri-food businesses to consistently produce safe and healthy food in compliance with current legislation.
At present, many standards can be checked or certified by independent bodies such as Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS). However, certification does not prove that a food is safe, but simply that it has been produced under a quality system that has been correctly applied. It is a cost-effective system for controlling product quality and safety. It is also a way for food companies to affirm their commitment to food safety, and to demonstrate the level of confidence expected by consumers and regulatory authorities alike.
