PAS 223: PRP’s on food safety for manufacturing Packaging Materials

PAS 223: PRP’s on food safety for manufacturing Packaging Materials is under development.

That's all I know.

Does anyone have further details?

Simon

Dear Simon,

This is the draft of the document, I think it will be available as an official PAS 223 document with the relevant modifications in the near future.

PAS 223: PRP’s on food safety for manufacturing Packaging Materials is under development.

PAS 223 appears to be positioning for GFSI-Recognition under FSSC22000 for food contact packaging. This is a positive development.

I agree, Charles. I'm excited to have this new standard available. I hope everyone is taking the opportunity to read through, and make comments if appropriate.

PAS 223 appears to be positioning for GFSI-Recognition under FSSC22000 for food contact packaging. This is a positive development.

5.3 Internal structures and fittings
Walls and floors shall be washable or cleanable, as appropriate for the food safety hazards associated with the packaging. Walls and floors shall be resistant to the cleaning system applied.
Standing water shall be avoided in areas where food safety may be impacted.
NOTE If packaging and/or raw materials are stored outside, appropriate measures should be in place to manage any risk from standing water.

The bit in bold above is just weird, what about other contaminants?

Knowing the BRC/IOP packaging standard so well I find the document quite lightweight and not as prescriptive or easy to read. I know it’s a draft and is meant to be used with ISO 22000. At the end of the day BRC standards are very unambiguous, well written and laid out and so it’s difficult to improve or do something different. A bit like trying to invent a new wheel that works just as well as the round one.

I notice the aim is that ISO 22000 + PRP223 = FSSC22000

Hi, I am a member of the GFSI technical commitee writing the benchmarking document for PAS223. The PAS is released on the 1st July and then will be adopted by the food safety foundation who manage the FSSC scheme, they will then prepare a scheme to submit for benchmarking to the GFSI, hopefully this will happen before the end of the year. Audits can be carried out agaisnt ISO 22000 plus PAS 223 until the scheme is developed. Eventually the PAS 223 will become an ISO/TS the same as ISO/TS 22002 part 1 has replaced PAS 220. The other PAS documents in development are retail and animal feed so there will be more technical specifications supporting ISO 22000 in the different food chain sectors.

Hope this helps :)

Hello everyone,

thanks to FSSM...

I received two weeks ago the PAS 223 last version. (BSI July-2011). ISBN 978 0 580 74170 8

Sorry I cant send you a copy, copyright thing.

However I will look to get a public version.

This PASS 223 is a light version, comparing the AIB standards (Any comments?)...

I'm checking all PASS 223 points (19) ....


best regards.
Roberto.

Dear FSSM,

I tend to agree with Simon's overall summary, but its not bad by any means and if it raises the profile of making safe food packaging so much the better.

I've not had time to go through in any depth, but one thing that jumped out was the requirement to use food grade oils in compressors which is something I'm very keen on.

There is often a lot of resistance to this from compressor manufacturers and service engineers. I also like the comment that food grade lubricants can be a sourse of allergens as this should encourage companies to look at the less obvious when doing allergen risk assessments.

Dear joy , when you finish work on Pass 223 , then pls provide me some information regarding this .
regards.
