ISO 22000 Certification Malaysia

Food Safety Management System (FSMS)

What is ISO 22000 Certification?

ISO 22000 Certification is a standard or requirement for Food Safety Management System (FSMS). It maps out what an organization needs to do to demonstrate its ability to control food safety hazards in order to ensure that food is safe. The potential benefits to an organization of implementing ISO 22000 Certification are:

Ability to consistently provide safe foods and products and services that meet customer and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements;
Addressing risks associated with its objectives;
Ability to demonstrate conformity to specified FSMS requirements.

ISO has recently revised the ISO 22000 version. The latest version is ISO 22000:2018.

Our ISO 22000 certification is recognized by the Ministry of Health Malaysia. We will ensure that your food safety management system meets national regulatory expectations and industry standards.

Other than ISO 22000, there are a few types of food safety system which widely implemented in the food industry, which are GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) & HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point). The GMP is the basic requirement regarding the food industry’s environment setup and good hygiene practices. While in HACCP requirements, other than the food industry’s environment setup and good hygiene practices are important, the other important part is the hazard analysis and critical control point system.
