FSSC 22000 certification in Calamba at a glance
A food plant in a mixed industrial park has neighbours that most food makers do not: chemicals and electronics. Carmelray Industrial Park 1 reports locators mostly in food, chemicals and electronics, so a Calamba producer working there must show buyers that its hygiene, allergen and segregation controls hold under those circumstances. FSSC 22000 is the scheme many retailers and brand owners accept: it builds on ISO 22000 with a sector prerequisite programme specification and extra requirements on food defence and food fraud, and it is recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative. Which scheme a buyer wants is stated in its supplier terms. Sterling, served from its Manila office, runs gap reviews at the plant and builds the system. An accredited certification body issues the certificate.

FSSC 22000 in Calamba: questions clients ask
Which Calamba plants are candidates for FSSC 22000?
Food manufacturers and packaging makers whose retail or brand-owner customers require a GFSI-recognised scheme. Carmelray Industrial Park 1 reports most of its locators in food, chemicals and electronics, so some food plants sit there. Eligibility depends on your food-chain category, which a certification body accredited for the scheme confirms.
How is FSSC 22000 different from ISO 22000?
FSSC 22000 uses ISO 22000 as its base and adds a sector prerequisite programme specification and extra scheme requirements, such as food defence and food fraud, and it is recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative. ISO 22000 alone is a standard without that recognition. Buyers decide which they accept.
