Gypsum is primarily known to many people as a high-quality building material. But calcium sulfate can do much more: In a sufficiently pure and quality-tested form, it is also used in the animal feed and food industries \u2013 for example, as calcium sulfate E 516.
CASEA GmbH operates precisely within this unique field of tension. The company has many years of experience in the extraction and processing of gypsum products and is constantly developing its systems to meet the requirements of the feed and food industries.
Together with Praxistrainings-LMS, CASEA is preparing for FSSC 22000 certification. The aim is to further strengthen customer confidence in the products and to establish a sustainable, practical, and auditable food safety management system.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tThe project at a glance<\/b><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t- Industry<\/strong>: Manufacturer of mineral raw materials for the food and feed industry (calcium sulfate in food and feed quality)<\/li>

This led to key questions:<\/p>
- How can a food safety management system be meaningfully integrated into existing structures?<\/li>
- What requirements does FSSC 22000 place on a manufacturer of mineral raw materials?<\/li>
- How can HACCP, food safety culture, and documented processes be effectively implemented at the site?<\/li>
- How can the transfer from an industrially oriented production environment to an auditable food safety system be achieved?<\/li><\/ul>
What makes this particularly challenging is that it is not an everyday food product, but a mineral raw material with a very specific application.

The collaboration combined various components: training, expert support, on-site visits, status quo assessments, and an internal audit to prepare for certification. The measures implemented included, among other things:<\/p>
- Training on HACCP and its practical implementation at the site<\/li>
- Training courses on the FSSC 22000 standard and the relevant requirements<\/li>
- Training on food safety culture and its integration into the company<\/li>
- Support for the targeted use of generative AI for QM-relevant documents<\/li>
- On-site inspections to assess the status quo<\/li>
- Derivation of key projects and areas of action for certification<\/li>
- Internal audit in summer 2026 to prepare for the planned certification<\/li><\/ul>
Especially in the initial phase, the focus was on identifying which requirements were already being met and where structures, documentation, or processes needed further development. Later, the emphasis increasingly shifted to concrete audit preparation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
