Paper and Printing
Packaging and print producers across BRCGS Packaging, hygiene requirements and sustainability.
What makes this industry distinctive
Anyone producing food packaging sits between classic print and paper production and the requirements of the food industry: hygiene, migration, contamination control. BRCGS Packaging Materials is the industry standard here — and sustainability is structurally on the agenda, not just as a marketing topic.
Situations clients come to us with
Hygiene and migration requirements
Food-contact packaging demands hygiene concepts and migration assessments that classic printers do not reflexively bring along.
BRCGS Packaging Materials
Initial or follow-up certification — and you need to know what the standard really demands, not just what the audit report says.
ISO 45001 in a material-intensive world
Occupational safety in paper and print environments has its own risk profile — not just a binder topic.
Sustainability as an obligation
Customers demand sustainability evidence. We help to connect this to the QM and environmental system rather than running it in parallel.
