Good Morning Melcnw,

 

What "raw material" are you working with?  We just had our first audit in a flour mill.

Dear melcnw - a few quotes -

 

ISO 22000

 

Food safety management systems - Requirements for any organization in the food chain

 

Organizations within the food chain range from feed producers and primary producers through food manufacturers, transport and storage operators and subcontractors to retail and food service outlets (together with inter-related organizations such as producers of equipment, packaging material, cleaning agents, additives and ingredients). Service providers are also included.

 

 

 

So quite likely yes.  But as per previous post, it might theoretically depend on what you are referring to ?

Hello Mr Melcnw,

 

ISO 22000-2005 is applicable to all organisations regardless of size, which are involved in any aspect of the food chain and want to implement systems that consistently provide safe products. The means of meeting any requirements of this international Standard can be accomplished through the use of internal and or external resources.

 

All requirements of this International Standard are generic and are intended to be applicable to all organizations in the food chain regardless of size and complexity. This includes organizations directly or indirectly involved in one or more steps of the food chain. Organizations that are directly involved include, but are not limited to, feed producers, harvesters, farmers, producers of ingredients, food manufacturers, retailers, food services, catering services, organizations providing cleaning and sanitation services, transportation, storage and distribution services. Other organizations that are indirectly involved include, but are not limited to, suppliers of equipment, cleaning and sanitizing agents, packaging material, and other food contact materials.

 

End product

product that will undergo no further processing or transformation by the organization.

 

NOTE- A product that undergoes further processing or transformation by another organization is an end product in the context of the first organization and a raw material or an ingredient in the context of the second organization

:welcome:

 

As indicated in previous posts:

 

International Standard ISO 22000 Food safety management systems — Requirements for any organization in the food chain
Scope

This International Standard specifies requirements for a food safety management system where an organization in the food chain needs to demonstrate its ability to control food safety hazards in order to ensure that food is safe at the time of human consumption.
It is applicable to all organizations, regardless of size, which are involved in any aspect of the food chain and want to implement systems that consistently provide safe products.

 

 

Regards,

 

Tony
