HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point.
It is a prevention-based "system"
designed to identify and control all points where food
can be contaminated and where
contaminants can increase and survive. The focus of HACCP
is on how food is handled.
It allows food safety risks to be predicted and prevented
before they happen.
The
HACCP system of preventative controls the most effective
way to protect against
food contamination. A seven-step process helps food
processors and food service
operators identify points where contamination could
occur and where preventative action
or controls can be taken to prevent, eliminate or reduce
the risk. The premise is simple...
if each step of the process is carried out correctly,
the end product will be safe food.
The HACCP standard is compulsory for food companies
who export to USA and Europe.
Why should we not have its advantage in Asia?

ISO9002 is a written system setting out how a quality
standard is to be achieved,
corrective action to take if the standard has not been
achieved and how it is to be verified
that the system is working. It is concerned with consistency
and certainty, not with
absolute standards.
Once
production achieves a consistent and controlled quality
standard, the company
feels more confident in raising standards. ISO 9002
is really a proof of our commitment
in delivering a consistent quality to consumers.
