BRC Global Standards for Packaging and Packaging Materials is the first standard in the world to be recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GSFI) benchmarking committee. It ensures all certified organizations develop safe, legal, high-quality packaging materials that exceed customers' expectations. To meet the BRC's standards, our personnel, facilities, product safety and quality, risk management systems, site standards and process control are audited to make sure we adhere to the set requirements.
All of our supplied packaging is ISO 9000 certified, meaning we consistently adhere to set standards and continuously work to improve the quality of our products. Internal audits and expections allow us to gain certification by the International Organization for Standardization, which defines, establishes, and maintains an effective quality assurance system for manufacturing and service industries. Learn more about how our customers guarantee quality assurance with their packaging on our blog.
The ISO 14000 is a series of environmental management standards set by the International Organization for Standardization. The guidelines set by the organization help us systemize and improve our environmental management efforts, including lessening the negative impact on our ecosystem and continually complying with laws and regulations to help improve resource efficiency, reduce waste, and drive down costs. By meeting the ISO 14000 standard, we have made it our commitment to manage our resources more efficiently and improve our environmental performance.

ASTM International works to improves the lives of millions every day, and this particular standard helps keep children and their families safe.
