It integrates the ISO 9001 standard and the use of HACCP techniques-Hazard analysis and critical control point according to Codex Alimentarius, rules of good working and hygiene practice as well as defined prerequisite programs (PRP) for safe food production.

In 2023, our company was successfully certified according to the international IFS (International Featured Standard-Food), widely applied international standard for assessing the compliance of products and processes with regard to food safety and quality. The IFS certificate is awarded by Quality Austria Certification Company, one of the leading audit and certification bodies. The certification covers the entire production of our products: standard breads, sliced breads, special types of breads, toasted bread and breadcrumbs.

All standards for process management, monitoring the supply and production chain, storage and delivery of products are regularly and timely upgraded following the latest recommendations and changes imposed by the needs for greater product safety.

The standards are universally applied across all links in the food chain, establishing requirements through which all potential risks and hazards to product safety can be discerned, preempted, controlled, and managed. A prerequisite for this is the clearly defined responsibilities and competences of all employees with effective interactive communication through monitoring of the supply and production chain, storage and delivery of products, in order to provide safe and quality
products for our consumers.

The application of the standards creates opportunities for significant competitive advantage, priority approach in international markets, prestigious level of professional credibility, at the same time demonstrating effectiveness and commitment to continuous improvement of overall operations. Managing food in a way that is appropriate and safe to use, in order to meet and exceed customer requirements is imperative for our company.

We achieve the quality of laboratory services with qualified and trained personnel and calibrated test equipment by participating in inter-laboratory comparisons where we provide an assessment of laboratory testing, professionalism and competence. This standard delineates the regulations that the Laboratory must adhere to, substantiating its possession of a quality system, thereby demonstrating competency and proficiency in generating technically sound outcomes.
