ACERTA Certification and Inspection Pty Ltd (ACI) provides independent ISO 22000 certification for Australian food businesses. We audit your food safety management system across the supply chain and certify where the evidence supports it.

What is ISO 22000?

ISO 22000 is the international standard for food safety management systems. It combines management system requirements with HACCP principles and prerequisite programmes, and applies to every organisation in the food chain — from primary production to packaging and distribution.

What our certification involves

• Review of your hazard analysis and food safety plan
• Assessment of prerequisite programmes and operational controls
• On-site audit of monitoring, verification and record-keeping
• Review of traceability, withdrawal and recall procedures
• Verification of internal audit, management review and corrective action
• Certification followed by scheduled surveillance audits

Why organisations certify

• Independent verification of food safety controls
• Widely recognised by retailers, distributors and export buyers
• Evidence of due diligence for regulators and insurers
• Reduced risk of contamination incidents and recalls

Our role

ACERTA Certification and Inspection Pty Ltd is a certification body. We audit and certify — we do not design, document or implement management systems for the organisations we assess. That separation is what gives our certificates value to the customers, regulators and trading partners who rely on them.
