FSSC 22000 Version 6: Protect Your Certifications and Attract New Buyers
FSSC 22000 Version 6 is the newest global food safety standard recognized by GFSI. It improves food safety controls throughout the supply chain by adding stricter rules for food fraud prevention, allergen control, environmental monitoring, equipment hygiene, training, and management commitment. To illustrate the urgency of these stricter food fraud clauses, consider the recent high-profile case of adulterated olive oil, in which producers mixed lower-quality oils with premium-grade olive oil, deceiving consumers and retailers. Such incidents not only endanger consumer health but also erode trust in food supply chains, underscoring the need for robust measures to prevent food fraud.
The new version improves traceability, focuses on risk-based thinking, and adds better performance measures to help lower contamination risks. To illustrate, imagine a frontline operator conducting a start-up inspection. Under a risk-based approach, instead of just following a checklist, the operator actively assesses potential contamination sources, ensuring equipment is thoroughly sanitized. Identifying unusual odors or textures during an inspection can prompt additional scrutiny, thereby actively preventing issues before they arise. This mindset enables food manufacturers, packaging units, storage sites, catering, and logistics companies to strengthen their daily practices, keep their certification, and meet global buyer needs.
Switching to Version 6 helps companies stay compliant, build a stronger food safety culture, improve operations, and gain wider global acceptance. Businesses that want to export or get retail approval should make the change before the deadline to avoid losing certification.
Accredium Certifications can help you quickly and affordably implement FSSC 22000 Version 6. You gain expert documentation, access to thorough audit support, and personalised consulting services. Experience comprehensive training, seamless internal audits, and guidance through the certification process across India, ensuring your path to compliance is smooth and worry-free.
