ISO 22005 Traceability and Shelf Life Monitoring in Food Supply Chains

ISO 22005 Traceability and Shelf Life Monitoring in Food Supply Chains: A Comprehensive Guide to Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

ISO 22005 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for traceability and shelf life monitoring in food supply chains. This standard aims to ensure the safe and efficient movement of food products from production to consumption, while also ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

Standard Development Organizations and Their Role

The development of ISO 22005 was led by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a non-governmental organization that develops and publishes international standards. The ISO is responsible for maintaining and updating the standard, in collaboration with national and international stakeholders.

In addition to ISO, other standard development organizations play a crucial role in shaping the standards content. These include:

Legal and Regulatory Framework Surrounding ISO 22005

The implementation of ISO 22005 is governed by various national and international laws and regulations. These include:

Companies must ensure compliance with these regulations, which often require certification to ISO 22005.

Standard Requirements and Needs

ISO 22005 specifies the requirements for traceability and shelf life monitoring in food supply chains. This includes:

1. Identifying critical control points (CCPs) where data is collected

2. Implementing a traceability system that records data on each products movement through the supply chain

3. Monitoring shelf life through regular testing and evaluation of product quality

4. Maintaining documentation to support claims made about product quality and safety
