In line with the current industry compliance standards and requirements, Dot It today announced it is now a cGMP certified food packaging manufacturer.
The company underwent a thorough audit and inspection of its facilities conducted by AIB International.
After meeting and exceeding the minimum regulations, the company received its certification on April 15, 2022, confirming its compliance.
Manufacturing processes have various standards and regulations that all manufacturers must adhere to before receiving the green light to proceed with their operations.
The Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) is one of the certifications that affirms that a company is compliant and adheres to regulations enforced by the FDA and their global partners.
cGMP inspection entails several critical elements from the FDA, ISO, Codex, and relevant regulatory agencies.
Assessments also involve evaluating a company’s standard operating procedures and compliance level with industry best practices since its inception.
The main areas under scrutiny include:
- Maintenance processes for food safety
- Operational methods
- Integrated pest management
- Cleaning practices
- Adequacy of food safety programs and prerequisite programs
The regulatory body mandated with inspecting the companies uses a scoring system to certify applicants. Each of the evaluated categories has 200 points for a maximum of 1,000 points.
A company must attain at least 700 points after a thorough audit of all the five categories to get certified.
Dot It is glad to announce it scored 935 points, placing the company in the Superior Category and receiving the Recognition of High Achievement Award. This certification demonstrates the company’s high level of compliance.
“With Dot It having cGMP certification, customers can be sure of receiving high-quality products to meet their packaging and labeling needs,” said David Jones, the director of operations at Dot It
“The certification demonstrates our company commitment to going above and beyond to meet clients’ requirements and to remain compliant with the highest safety standards.” Keri Smith, the president of Dot It
