The BRCGS Packaging Standard for packaging and packaging materials for the quality assurance of packaging materials was developed by the BRC as a standard of the BRC Global Standards series. BRC stands for Brand, Reputation and Compliance. The standard was formerly called BRC Packaging Standard and was renamed BRCGS Packaging in 2020. Certification to BRCGS Packaging is relevant for you if your company produces packaging and packaging materials that are used in the food industry and for retail.
Certification is a prerequisite for market access with many brand owners, retailers, food service companies and manufacturers, not only in the Anglo-American region. The standard sets safety, quality and operational criteria for packaging manufacturers. The aim is to ensure compliance with laws and consumer protection. Companies' production facilities, operating systems and processes must be audited by an accredited and approved certification body, such as TÜV NORD CERT, in order to obtain the certificate. The standard is accredited by DAkkS.
