Following two days of scrutiny and investigation, Mercian Labels were thrilled to receive the highest ‘AA+’ rating achievable for an unannounced BRCGS audit yesterday, evidencing our commitment to food safety and quality.

The BRCGS (Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standard) Packaging Materials certification is the global industry benchmark for food packaging producers, which is why we submit our site, systems and procedures to this most rigorous independent assessment, assuring food sector clients that our labels are manufactured to the very highest standards.

Covering everything from hygiene and cleanliness, product traceability, supplier management, food safety and quality management systems to hazard analysis and critical control points, the auditor was very impressed with our attention to detail, knowledge and expertise, with the words ‘World Class’ being used many times during the debrief.
