Allergen policy for maintenance lubricants and cleaning chemicals
Add to your supplier verification - all items including chemicals are checked for allergens before purchasing/using.
chemical suppliers. I don't think you need to make it much more difficult then that.
Hello,thanks for the tip but I already had that and he didn't think it was enough ...
Hi rlixab,
So was any supplier documentation available for auditorial purposes ?
Hi,
We just complete out BRC Packaging Standard Issue 6. However, we got 1 NCR due to not including allergen in HACCP for raw material.
We already including chemical in our HACCP and insisted that there are no allergen for raw material as our raw material are BOPP ink and adhesive.
If we include in our HACCP, what does supporting document that we need to request from our supplier?
request an allergen declaration
Most (if not all) chemical companies that are supplying food manufacturing (including packaging) should have one on hand and this should not be a surprise to them
I fully agree with Scampi on this. The potential risk you're including in your hazard analysis is allergen presence from raw materials, and you are (or will be) controlling this as a pre-requisite via your raw material assessment process, by obtaining allergen information from your suppliers.
