ISO 22002-1:2025 Prerequisite programmes on food safety, Part 1: Food manufacturing 12.4: Physical contamination

What does 12.4 require?

Measures prevent, control or detect physical contamination, weighing covers over equipment and containers holding exposed materials or product, screens, magnets, sieves or filters, and detection or rejection equipment (metal detection, X-ray). Typical sources are wooden pallets, wooden tools, rubber seals and protective clothing. Where brittle materials are present there are periodic inspection requirements and a defined breakage procedure, glass and hard plastic components are avoided where possible, and breakage records are kept.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • FFM-2.7 Measures for prevention of cross-contamination

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
