BRC Packaging

Every person on earth is impacted by the food sector. No other industry is as crucial to each of our daily lives and cultures as food does, despite the fact that what people eat may vary depending on region, wealth, age, gender, and the availability of items. Economically, food represents 10% of global GDP (valued at US$48 trillion by the World Bank).

The food industry, however, also faces formidable obstacles. One in ten individuals worldwide get sick from food-borne illnesses every year, which also kill millions of people. Forecasts for population expansion and the rise of the middle class indicate that by 2050, food demand will have increased by 70%. Additionally, customers are more concerned with the ingredients, production methods, and environmental effects of their food.

A site or operation can use the BRCGS Packaging Materials Global Standard to show that the products they are selling are genuine, legal, and of the highest quality.

BRCGS Packaging Materials, which was the first to be acknowledged by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), is currently in its sixth edition and has emerged as the standard for the entire industry. Producers of packaging for all uses, including those for food, use it throughout the supply chain.

The following operations are covered by the standard:

Create package materials for printing or conversion.

Whenever there is further product processing or repackaging, provide packaging materials from stock.

production and supply of other utilized or included unconverted or semi-converted materials
