Pancosma SA, with production sites in Geneva, Switzerland; Bellegarde, France
and Drumondville, Canada; has become one of the first feed additives manufacturers
to achieve four of the highest quality standard accreditations available to the
industry today.
Already awarded some years ago with ISO 9001 and more recently with ISO 14001
certifications, Pancosma has just achieved HACCP and FAMI-QS standards.
FAMI-QS - Feed Additives and PreMixtures Quality System is seen as a very important
acquisition. It integrates ISO quality standards and HACCP requirements with the
objective of providing a single reference quality system for the EU. FAMI-QS takes
into account the European code of practice relating to future regulations of the
European Parliament and the Quality Management Systems developed by associations
in different member states e.g. FEMAS (UKASTA, UK), GMP (OVOCOM,B) and Q+S (DVT,
D).
For a company such as Pancosma trading in all European countries, FAMI-QS is seen
as being essential to moving forward with its customers to meet the higher and
higher standards demanded by the legislative bodies.
