Increase product safety and hygiene with IFS HPC, the IFS standard for household and personal care products.
The IFS Standard for household and personal care products, published in 2009, has been developed in collaboration with numerous European retailers and trade associations. The standard provides a framework to assess manufacturers and suppliers in terms of product safety and hygiene. Companies involved in the packaging of loose products can also benefit from the standard.
During the certification process, a qualified DQS auditor verifies whether the different components of the quality- and risk management system have been implemented and documented. IFS HPC focuses upon the production process, resource management and risk management.
The standard is particularly popular among European retailers.
