BRC Certification

What Is BRC?
Global Standard for Consumer Products

BRC is the British Retail Consortium and Global Standard for consumer products. It is an internationally recognized standard developed by top experts of industries to ensure that it is detailed and easy to understand. The standard focuses on the importance of management commitment, Product risk assessments to ensure the product’s design is safe and legal before production, it uses process risk assessment as a tool to ensure potential issues in the production of the products have been understood, prioritized and effectively managed. It also ensures the design and maintenance of the factory and production environment is suitable to manufacture and protects products from contamination and an effective product testing and sampling process as well. Global standard is based on senior management commitment, product risk management, product safety and quality management system, site standards, product standard and testing, process control and personnel (employee training, protective clothing & hygiene)

It is a voluntary standard therefore it automatically fulfils the expectations of the customers and stakeholders regarding consumer products management system. Retailers who are the member of BRC, demands to their consumer product supply chain to be certified on BRC consumer product standard and it is also perceived that many retailers of UK & US demands BRC consumer certification from their suppliers.

The British Retail consortium is a trade association founded by the UK retailers. Global standard for consumer products was first published in 2003. This standard is the most detailed guideline for the implementation of consumer product requirements. BRC does not conduct audit itself. Some certification bodies are authorized by BRC to conduct the audit. Most of the countries have formed their own accreditation bodies to authorize the certification bodies. Accreditation and certification bodies charge their fee against their services. Accredited certificate issued by any accredited certification body is accepted worldwide. BRC certificate also carries the identical logo of BRC consumer products. BRC Certificate is also uploaded with all details of the organization on BRCGS online directory.
