OMNI Systems has announced the renewal of its Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) Certificate after undergoing an annual audit. The Global Food Safety Initiative is the universal gold standard signifying that the certification holder operates with a structured, comprehensive, and effective food safety program, verifying compliance with industry best practices.
Given what’s at stake for food industry companies, the thermal labels they use for food packaging applications must be of the absolute highest quality to prevent peeling, ensure safety and enable consistently accurate barcode screening from warehouses to store shelves.
The GFSI Certificate has been attained by Brand Reputation through Compliance Global Standards (BRC) certification for packaging and packaging materials. BRC certification complies with guidelines established by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) and validates that OMNI’s thermal packaging labels for food are safe and effective for use on food-grade packaging.
OMNI Systems’ BRC certification, under GFSI guidelines, was issued by AIB International, a world-renowned third-party testing organisation that conducted an extensive on-site audit against standard requirements. AIB International audits and facility inspections are conducted at food processing and manufacturing sites around the world.
“We’ve become the nation’s fastest-growing label converter by focusing on what customers want and need most. For food industry companies, GFSI guidelines underscore our ability to help them ensure product safety, regulatory compliance and proper handling,” noted Adam DeFrancesco, OMNI Systems Founder and CEO.
