Hungarian plastics plant receives certification

The plant, which manufactures packaging for food and beverages,
hygiene products, and pet products, has now successfully
completed a three-day audit. Reinhard Große from the German
Association for the Certification of Management Systems certified
the Hungarian NORDENIA site for compliance with the requirements
of a hygiene management system defined by the standard.
Besides the already implemented aspects of the HACCP concept
(Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point), the company in Szada has
integrated all requirements which currently exist for a
comprehensive hygiene management system. The new DIN EN
15593 standard does not only shape these requirements very
precisely, it also covers BRC/IoP’s detailed requirements concerning
corporate hygiene, product safety, and quality assurance for
packaging manufacturers.
László Nagy Kaszap, Managing Director of NORDENIA HUNGARY
Szada, is satisfied: “Our team implemented the new standard in less
than six months. Each and every employee contributed to this great
achievement. In future, we will take it as a permanent challenge to
further improve the level of our hygiene standard.”
In total, with the sites in Gronau, Halle, Steinfeld (all in Germany),
Barcelona (Spain), and Szada, five subsidiaries within the
NORDENIA Group are now certified under this hygiene standard –
with the plants in Osterburken (Germany), Poznan (Poland), and
Pereslavl (Russia), further sites are to follow.
