ISO 22002-7:2025 Prerequisite programmes on food safety, Part 7: Retail and wholesale 12.5: Chemical contamination

What does 12.5 require?

Measures prevent contamination of food and food contact materials by chemicals such as cleaning agents, disinfectants, lubricants and pesticides. Chemicals used are approved by the competent authority where applicable, applied by competent people according to the product instructions (concentration, method), labelled, stored apart from food and food contact materials and kept in a locked or otherwise secured area. Any pesticides are stored away from cleaning and disinfecting agents, and equipment for applying pesticides or non-food-grade lubricants is dedicated and labelled. If chemical contamination may have occurred, staff take corrections and corrective actions and communicate the event.
