Motivation and benefits

Failures in food supply and their adverse impacts on food safety may lead to illnesses threatening to life. In addition, the losses caused by spoiled foodstuffs and faulty storage reach unimaginable dimensions.
Therefore, the ISO Standard EN ISO 22000 “Food Safety Management System Standard” specifies the requirements food safety management systems (FSMS) must meet in order to consistently provide safe end products for the consumer and increase customer satisfaction. ISO 22000 is the standard for all organizations active throughout the food chain, which is harmonized worldwide.
ISO 22000 can be applied by all organizations in the food chain, including feed producers and agriculture, worldwide. ISO 22000 combines recognized key elements of food safety, such as interactive communication, system management, process control and HACCP principles, with the so-called prerequisite programmes.
