Ronco Receives ISO 2200 Certification For Food Safety

CONCORD, ON, January 19, 2013 (Press-News.org) As a commitment to safeguard their customers in the food and beverage industry, RONCO has officially announced their achievement of ISO 22000 certification for Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS).

The Company is the first glove and plastic manufacturer in North America to obtain this food safety qualification, which certifies that their manufacturing, storage and delivery processes meet, or exceed, the global standards required for food safety.

Beyond CFIA approval or HACCP compliance, an ISO 22000 recognized company has followed an international framework of process standards designed to ensure food safety. Any company seeking hygienic, consistent-quality products that reduce the risk of food contamination can consider RONCO a value-added partner in their supply chain.

RONCO President Ron Pecchioli advocates strongly for minimizing risk in the food and beverage industry. "Reports of food safety issues are growing rapidly on a global scale. Every week, we read news from somewhere in the world that the public's safety has been compromised as a result of a food-borne illness."

"While we cannot prevent the production of bacteria in a food processing plant or food preparation facility, we can guarantee that our gloves and plastic bags help reduce the risk of contamination." Mr. Pecchioli concluded, "RONCO is proud to be a part of this global quality initiative."

Established in 1996, Ronco is a world class manufacturer of safety and plastic products. With a focus on consistent quality and outstanding customer service, RONCO has developed a strong presence across Canada for delivering safety solutions for Hand, Head and Body as well as FIBC, Polywovens and a variety of plastic bags.
