HACCP is an internationally recognized, science-based, food safety system that is used to help ensure the manufacture of safe food products.

HACCP is designed to prevent, reduce or eliminate potential biological, chemical and physical food safety hazards, including those caused by cross-contamination.

Who standardises HACCP?

HACCP methodology has been standardised internationally by the Codex Alimentarius Commission which was created by the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) of the United Nations to develop food standards.
