Weedon PSC of Hednesford, Staffordshire, one of the UK’s leading independent corrugated packaging manufacturers, has achieved the highest British Retail Consortium (BRC) accreditation for the packaging of food and drink, ‘AA’, following its latest audit.
The BRC operates a programme of internationally recognised hygiene standards for the packaging used for food and drink. Accreditation at level ‘AA’ means that Weedon PSC’s customers can be confident that the company is producing top quality corrugated packaging suitable for the food and drink markets.
John Weedon, Managing Director of Weedon PSC, said:
“With the food industry under increasing scrutiny, certification is a big issue. The BRC quality certification programme is used by over 22,000 suppliers to the food industry across 123 countries. From presiding over activities which may affect the safety, quality and legality of stored products, to helping establish good manufacturing practices, the standard is fast becoming a minimum requirement for major retailers.
“Weedon PSC is committed to delivering a first class service to our customers in every respect. BRC provides the industry-wide benchmark for food safety and quality, and level ‘AA’ is the absolute pinnacle for us to aim at. We are delighted that our high standards have been recognised in this way.”
