IFS PACsecure

Meet Growing Transparency and Traceability Demands

The IFS PACsecure Standard assesses the quality and safety of packaging materials and their compliance with regulatory and customer requirements.

It supports businesses in meeting the growing transparency and traceability demands in the market and contributes to improving product integrity and increasing efficiency. The standard applies to manufacturers of all kinds of primary and secondary packaging materials, including flexible packaging, rigid plastic, paper, metal, glass, and other natural materials.

IFS certification offers a number of product and process related benefits to companies striving for excellence in quality, food safety, and customer satisfaction and seeking a competitive marketplace advantage. These benefits include the following:

• Is less prescriptive than other GFSI-benchmarked audits due to a risk-based approach that allows for higher flexibility in implementation
• Improves understanding between management and staff relating to good practices, standards, and procedures
• Reduces the number of customer audits
• Reduces total audit time by combining multiple audits

IFS PACsecure audits can be a good fit for companies looking for a risk-based certification that offers the chance to develop solutions that fit the processes and needs of the company.
