Iso Ts 220024 Checklist Top [patched] (2024)
This guide is structured to help you audit, develop, or maintain your Prerequisite Programmes (PRPs) against the specific requirements of ISO/TS 22002-1:2009 (often used in conjunction with ISO 22000).
8. Animal Management (if applicable)
- Animal health programs, welfare, and movement controls.
- Manure, slurry handling and storage controls to prevent contamination.
- Biosecurity measures to limit pathogen introduction/spread.
8. Raw Materials & Supplier Approval
- [ ] Raw material risk assessment: Are all inks, adhesives, coatings, and base materials assessed for chemical migration (e.g., primary aromatic amines – PAAs, mineral oils)?
- [ ] Declaration of Compliance (DoC): Do you obtain a DoC from each supplier according to EU 10/2011, FDA 21 CFR, or local regulations?
- [ ] Storage conditions: Are raw materials kept at controlled temperature/humidity (e.g., 23±2°C, 50±10% RH for polypropylene films)? Are they stored on racks at least 30 cm off the floor?
- [ ] Incoming inspection: Is each lot checked for correct labeling, no damage, and no odor contamination before release?
3. Utilities – Air, Water, and Energy
Food packaging often requires compressed air to blow-mold bottles or move materials. This air touches the food-contact surface.
- Checklist Item: Is compressed air that contacts food packaging filtered to remove oil, water, and particulates (ISO 8573-1 Class 1.4.1)?
- Checklist Item: Is water used for cooling or washing potable (drinkable quality)?
- Checklist Item: Are steam lines (used for drying or sterilization) food-grade and free of boiler additives that could contaminate?

The Checklist at the Top
Maya Vasquez had three hours to save two hundred jobs.
She stood in the silent, stainless-steel heart of ApexPak’s food-packaging line, the air thick with the smell of sanitizer and ozone. In her trembling hand was a tablet. On the tablet was a single document: ISO/TS 22002-4:2023 Checklist – Top Section (Management Commitment). This guide is structured to help you audit,
Three months ago, ApexPak was a mid-tier family business making yogurt cups and takeout clamshells. Then came the recall. A competitor’s liner failed; a child got sick. Now every major retailer demanded a new certification by noon today. Without it, ApexPak’s contracts would vanish by 5 PM.
Maya wasn’t the quality manager. She was the interim quality manager—promoted after the old one quit, screaming about “unfixable rot.” She was 29, over-caffeinated, and drowning. Animal health programs, welfare, and movement controls
But she had the checklist.
4. Site & Buildings
- Location & layout: Minimizes contamination risk (drainage, proximity to hazards).
- Construction & maintenance: Surfaces, drainage, ventilation suitable and maintained.
- Zoning: Clean/dirty segregation where relevant.
