History

2022: FSSC 22000 Certification

On September 13, 2022, BIAXPLEN (part of) SIBUR announced that it had successfully passed certification of production facilities in,, Kursk Novokuybyshevsk Balakhna, and according to the Tomsk To Balashikha FSSC 22000 scheme, version 5.1.

After the suspension of certificates for compliance with the requirements of BRC Packaging Materials standards from enterprises in Russia, BIAKSPLEN quickly switched to an updated certification scheme. This required additional training of internal auditors, preparation of production and adaptation of the necessary documentation to new requirements.

Rapid preparation for certification within three months became possible due to the high quality and food safety standards of BIAXPLEN in terms of BOPP production.

This result was made possible thanks to the involved and well-coordinated work of our specialists. The team of all plants demonstrated motivation and a very worthy result, ensuring success in this important business task, said Alla Potapova, Operations Director of BIAXPLEN

Our customers always have food safety requirements for BOPP films, and we are used to fully complying with them. Certification under the FSSC scheme will allow us to maintain and increase sales, due to the compliance of our products with high quality standards, added Artyom Gorbachev, Head of Sales of the Russian Federation/CIS

We ourselves have set ourselves aggressive goals for the transition to an updated certification system in August 2022. The certification body took into account the presence of suspended BRC documents in BIAXPLEN, which made it possible to reduce the time. At the same time, the team of internal auditors and production worked perfectly, confirming the high quality of our production processes, summarized Lidia Naumova, Head of Integrated Management System Department
