Bag-in-Box® Food contact

Ensuring maximum food safety for our customers

The majority of our bags are used for packing liquid food products: wine, dairy products, liquid eggs, juices, oils, water and others. Therefore, they have to guarantee unconditional food safety. We are aware that if the packaging is not absolutely safe, it may harm the packed product or, even worse, lead the final consumers to serious sanitary problems. We want our customers to be 100% confident when they bring their packed product to consumers. We pay a very special attention to offer the safest packaging possible, in compliance with all regulations. Smurfit Kappa BIB works in cooperation with world-class laboratories and organisations to ensure food safety for its customers and also takes part in the dedicated conferences and think tanks.

Our facilities are unique in the world and offer the highest standards in the industry. Most of them are ISO 22000 and ISO 9001 certified and fulfill the strictest requirements for food contact. We are always happy to welcome our customers on our plants to show them our production process and our constant efforts, so that they can be absolutely confident about the food safety of our products.

The plants are ultra-clean and follow the strictest hygiene and food safety standards, including air filtration, air conditioning, anti-contamination and anti-microbe procedures. Finally, thanks to the common standards in our plants, we are able to shift production elsewhere in case of major unexpected circumstances.
