Why Packaging Certification Is More Important Than Ever
Businesses in food, feed, agriculture and industrial sectors rely heavily on sack manufacturing and packaging to protect their products, ensure safety and maintain compliance. While packaging might appear simple, the risks associated with poor-quality or unhygienic sacks are considerable. Contamination, product damage, retailer rejections and failed audits can lead to significant financial and reputational consequences.
BRC AA certification represents the highest achievable standard for packaging and sack manufacturing. It signals world-class hygiene, traceability, material management and production control. For brands operating in regulated sectors, choosing a supplier with BRC AA certification is no longer optional, it is essential.
Understanding the Risks of Using Non-Certified Packaging Suppliers
Companies that opt for non-certified or poorly regulated packaging suppliers expose themselves to major risks. Without strict process control, packaging may contain contaminants, be stored improperly or vary in strength and construction. Even small inconsistencies can cause sacks to fail during filling or transport, leading to wastage and customer complaints.
Regulators and retailers now expect complete traceability across the supply chain. If packaging does not meet expected standards and a retailer audit identifies failure points, suppliers risk losing contracts immediately. A single contamination incident originating from packaging can also trigger a costly recall.
Using a supplier without top-level certification is therefore a gamble many businesses cannot afford to take.
