GMP + FSA CERTIFICATION

GMP standards for Good Manufacturing Practices. In 1992 the current GMP+ Feed Certification scheme started out with this. Afterwards, it developed into a full-fledged certification scheme by integrating ISO quality management requirements, HACCP and other elements.

The + stands for the integration of HACCP: 'Hazards Analysis and Critical Control Points'. The foundation of the GMP+ systematic is partly determined by continuous improvement according to the principle of the Deming circle 'Plan, Do, Check, Act': write down what I'm doing, do what I've written down and providing proof that I effectively did it.

The GMP+ Feed Certification scheme does not only define conditions relating to production facilities of feed, but also for storage, transport, staff, procedures, documentation etc. Together with her partners, GMP+ international transparently defines clear conditions, so that feed safety and sustainability are guaranteed and certification bodies can conduct independent audits. GMP+ certified companies are supported with useful and practical information, such as various databases, newsletters, Q&A lists, courses and seminars.

With over 13,400 participating companies in more than 70 countries, GMP+ International is a leading global player in the market of feed safety assurance certification. A GMP+ certificate provides an additional qualitative guarantee for every entrepreneur dealing with the international feed industry.
