Training for other industries: HPC for Household & Personal Care manufacturers and service providers

Manufacturers of household and personal care products are facing growing regulatory requirements, rising quality demands of the trade and increasingly stringent audits. The IFS HPC standard (International Featured Standards – Household and Personal Care) is the central reference framework for quality, product safety and process control in the household and personal care industry.

Our HPC training courses are specifically aimed at companies that HPC certified would like or their existing HPC certification maintain and want to further develop in an audit-proof manner – practical, understandable and compliant with standards.

Further training courses are specifically aimed at Service providers in the food and packaging manufacturing industries. These are often subject to no dedicated IFS, BRCGS or FSSC standard. And yet customers expect: Audit capability, Standard knowledge, structured evidence, Completed supplier questionnaires. 

Our in-house training provides clarity on precisely this point. We translate. Making complex standard requirements understandable for service providers along the food chain.
