BRCGS Packaging Materials Global Standard
Packaging Materials
A BRCGS audit looks at what is visible on site rather than at the document set. The work therefore runs through site conditions, hygiene practices and contamination controls. Product safety hazard analysis is built around the production flow, and raw material and supplier controls are tied to traceability. Personnel hygiene and product safety culture are supported by training, while internal audit and site walks are planned as a rehearsal for the certification audit.
Who is it for?
Organizations producing packaging materials for food and non-food products that want to improve product safety, quality and hygiene requirements, meet customer expectations or prepare for BRCGS Packaging Materials certification.
Scope of work
- Current state and gap analysis against BRCGS requirements
- Assessment of the product safety and quality management system

- Assessment of site standards, hygiene and contamination controls
- Control of raw materials, suppliers and production processes
- Structuring traceability, product recall and incident management processes
- Developing personnel hygiene, training and product safety culture
- Internal audit, site walks and certification audit readiness
Expected outputs
- A management system structure meeting BRCGS Packaging Materials requirements
- Product safety hazard and risk analyses
- Hygiene, process control and traceability practices
- The required procedures, records and monitoring tools
- Nonconformity and improvement action plans
Implementation and development plan
A hybrid model led by on-site implementation and site assessments, supported by live online sessions where needed.
