Independent corrugated packaging manufacturer Weedon PSC has achieved an AA British Retail Consortium (BRC) accreditation for the packaging of food and drink.

The AA accreditation is the highest that packaging firms can be awarded, allowing Weedon to market its products as top quality corrugated packaging suitable for the food and drink markets.

John Weedon, managing director of Weedon PSC, said: “With the food industry under increasing scrutiny, certification is a big issue. The BRC quality certification programme is used by over 22,000 suppliers to the food industry across 123 countries. From presiding over activities which may affect the safety, quality and legality of stored products, to helping establish good manufacturing practices, the standard is fast becoming a minimum requirement for major retailers.”
