Scope 3
As for CO2 savings in scope 3, developments at Dijkstra Plastics are moving ahead at speed. One example is how all non-food customers have been switched to pails made of 100% recycled plastic. This results in CO2 emission savings of no less than 60% per pail. Also the use of recycled plastic in lids is getting closer.
Finally, in June 2022 we launched a startup called FIRE-OFF. This company ensures that used empty pails are no longer incinerated, with a 100% closed loop as a result. This signals a further reduction in our scope 3 CO2 emissions.
For more information about FIRE-OFF we are pleased to refer you to www.fire-off.eu.

BRC Packaging
BRCGS is a standard for food safety. The standard describes the hygiene and food safety requirements for food processing companies that supply directly to the retail sector. You can also think of packaging materials for foodstuffs.
FSSC 22000
The FSSC 22000 Standard has been created through Stichting Certificatie Voedselveiligheid (SCV). As a food-oriented version of the ISO 22000 Standard, this certification programme has been set up as a global guideline in food safety and quality within various industries. This standard is aimed at the entire production chain and as such, it is ideally suited for international harmonisation, partly thanks to the recognition by the GFSI. In addition to its connection with ISO 22000, the FSSC 22000 has many comparisons with the HACCP criteria, making it an attractive variant with the best of both worlds from these programmes. Thanks to the internationally accepted nature of the FSSC and the chain-wide approach within this certification programme, we recognise a strong food safety management system in this standard.
