Hi selmaassili,

​the bulletin you recive i  it a COA and what type of product is it?  because if it a raw ingredient and the it is mix it with other ingredients then you will have to show you have being doing some micro testing.

 

this is what brc says"There shall be a scheduled programme of testing covering products and the processing environment, which may include microbiological, chemical, physical and organoleptic testing according to risk. The methods, frequency and specified limits shall be documented"

 

 Thanks

hello, 

yes clause 3.5

 

Hi selma,

 

afaik you will need to carry out risk assessment procedures on all yr ingredients, etc such as illustrated in this link -

 

http://www.ifsqn.com...al/#entry100194

 

(there are several alternative procedures on the forum with similar objectives)


Kind Regards,
