March 2021 Packaging Auditor Training Course

Overview:
Food packaging takes a variety of forms and the risks from packaging are dependent upon the risks associated with the food product itself. Since packaging requirements are determined by the intended use of the materials, it is essential that auditors develop a thorough understanding of the hazards associated with the manufacturing and use of packaging materials.
