Recertification GMP+ for Van den Bosch

Van den Bosch has successfully completed the GMP+ audit. This means that the current GMP+ certification, an international declaration to ensure feed safety, will be extended by another three years.

Since 2000, Van den Bosch has been allowed to carry the GMP+ certification. This means that all standards within the feed industry are met. Every three years an organisation must be recertified. The company has to demonstrate that the transport of raw materials for the feed industry is carried out in accordance with the set standards and the quality of the transported product is optimally guaranteed during transport.

Quality audit

Due to the corona crisis, the quality audit was conducted digitally this year: a new experience for both the auditor and Van den Bosch. During the audit, the focus was in particular on the GMP+ orders that have been performed. This concerns the transport of raw materials for the feed industry, such as soy oil, salmon oil and methionine. The audit was successful, which means the GMP+ certification will be extended by another three years.

Dedicated fleet

Van den Bosch has a dedicated fleet available to meet the growing demands in the field of feed safety. The equipment meets strict requirements and audits are conducted on a regular basis to ensure safe transport in accordance with the standards of GMP+ International, the certifying organisation. All Van den Bosch subcontractors are also GMP+ certified.

About the GMP+ certification

With over 18,000 participating companies in more than 80 countries, GMP+ International is the world leader in feed safety certification. Companies with a GMP+ certificate meet the local and international standards within the feed industry with regard to the assurance of feed safety.
