ISO 22005 Traceability of Packaging Materials Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

ISO 22005 is a standard that specifies the requirements for traceability in packaging materials. It is part of the ISO 22000 series, which focuses on food safety management systems. The standard aims to ensure that packaging materials can be traced back to their origin and that any issues or concerns can be quickly identified and addressed.

Relevant Standards

The following standards are relevant to ISO 22005 Traceability of Packaging Materials testing:

  • ISO 22000:2018 - Food Safety Management Systems

  • ISO/TS 22005:2007 - Traceability in the Feed and Food Chain - General Principles and Basic Requirements for System Design and Implementation

  • ASTM E2659-11 - Standard Practice for Sampling, Testing, and Certifying Packaging Materials

  • EN 14172:2014 - Plastics Piping Systems - Polyethylene (PE) - Materials Requirements

  • TSE 1482:2013 - Food Contact Plastics - General Safety and Performance Requirements

    • Legal and Regulatory Framework

    The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 22005 Traceability of Packaging Materials testing is complex and varies by country. In general, food manufacturers and suppliers are required to ensure that their packaging materials meet specific safety and performance requirements.

  • EU Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 on Food Contact Materials

  • EU Regulation (EU) No 2023/2006 on Plastic Materials and Articles Intended for Food Contact

  • US FDAs Food Code (21 CFR Part 110)

  • Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) Regulations

    • Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of standards. Some notable organizations include:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

  • Turkish Standards Institution (TSE)

    • Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect changes in technology, regulations, and industry practices. This can lead to updates or revisions of existing standards.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    The following are some standard numbers and their scope:

  • ISO 22005:2007 - Traceability in the Feed and Food Chain - General Principles and Basic Requirements for System Design and Implementation
