Food Safe Corrugated Packaging Benefits
Research has proven the many benefits of using corrugated packaging to ship through the food chain. The high temperatures of the corrugated manufacturing process kill most bacteria, making it one of the most hygienic materials for food distribution. Additionally, corrugated provides a secure barrier between food and the outside environment and offers durable, protective, and versatile shipping containers.
At Akers, our commitment to food safe corrugated packaging goes beyond the expectations of our customers by maintaining a self-driven SQF Certification through ASI Food Safety, a third-party ANAB Accredited certification body.
SQF Certification
SQF Certification ensures that our packaging meets rigorous food safety requirements, reinforcing our commitment to our customers that we maintain the highest standards of food safety. The certification process involves a comprehensive gap analysis against the standard requirements, the creation and implementation of procedures and processes throughout the facility, and regular risk assessments and internal audits to verify compliance.
