Eco Flexibles has achieved Grade AA certification in the British Retail Consortium (BRC) Global Food Safety Standard audit. This accomplishment emphasizes the company’s unwavering commitment to quality, safety, and operational excellence in the realm of food and drink packaging.
The BRC certification is globally acknowledged as the benchmark for food safety, enhancing Eco Flexibles’ role as a comprehensive partner in the food packaging supply chain. This milestone is especially significant given the rigorous certification process, which evaluates over 300 operational parameters, including hygiene protocols, quality control measures, safety standards, and production efficiency.
This achievement aligns with the company’s growth trajectory, as Eco Flexibles has recently expanded its state-of-the-art production facility and augmented its capabilities with the acquisition of dual Fujifilm Jet Press FP790 digital presses and Karlville Swiss pouching machines. Notably, this food safety certification complements Eco Flexibles’ existing BRC packaging certifications, where the company has successfully maintained Grade AA status for the past three years.
David Smith, General Manager at Eco Flexibles, stated: “Securing BRC Grade AA certification for Food Safety is another significant milestone in our journey. As we continue to grow and evolve our business, it shows how we’re maintaining the highest possible standards across every single aspect of our operations. In an industry where quality and consistency are vital, this recognition demonstrates we’re delivering excellence at every level.”
“While our focus is on revolutionizing the flexible packaging market through sustainable innovation, this certification proves we match this with exemplary operational standards. It’s a powerful combination that enables us to serve as a true end-to-end partner for our food industry brand customers.”
This certification—recognized by 70% of the top 10 global retailers—offers added assurance to brands partnering with Eco Flexibles as they transition to recyclable mono-material and paper-based packaging solutions. Coupled with the company’s existing BRC accreditations, it further solidifies Eco Flexibles’ position as a reliable packaging partner throughout the entire supply chain.
