First understand the Certification System:
FSSC 22000: Has worldwide recognition, is recognized by GFSI and
is quickly growing in popularity. For food packaging manufacturers,
this scheme is defined in the two standards: ISO 22000 and PAS
223
ISO 22000 contains the requirements for the Food Safety
Management System
The PAS 223 contains the requirements for your Prerequisite
Programs or PRPs
PRPs are the programs that are in place in your facility to create a
hygienic environment to allow you to manufacture safe product.
The PAS 223 contains requirements for the PRPs that are specific to
the manufacturing of food packaging.

The manufacturer must first design and build the
Food Safety Management System (FSMS) and the
Prerequisite Programs (PRPs)
Once the FSMS and PRPs are in place, the
manufacturer contacts a Registrar
The Registrar performs a Certification Audit to
determine compliance of the system with the two
standards, ISO 22000 and PAS 223

The management systems processes are used
to manage food safety issues throughout the
organization, and go above and beyond
controlling hazards through HACCP and
GMPs.
One example of this is communication. The
standards include requirements for effective
communication of food safety issues to those
up and down the food chain.
