UN CERTIFICATES

UN stands for a UN marking in accordance with United Nations regulations and is an international safety standard indicating that packaging is suitable for the transport of dangerous goods in line with the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. For a company, this means that the relevant packaging meets strict requirements regarding safety, mechanical strength and leak tightness.

A UN marking does not automatically apply to all types of packaging products and does not constitute a generic certificate for the entire product range. The marking is granted per specific type, model and version of a packaging product. Each individual product that complies with the applicable requirements has its own UN approval.

The validity of our UN certificates is subject to strict conditions. In our product overviews (both in the brochure and online), we clearly indicate which products are UN certified.

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.
