ISO 22002 changes for Food Manufacturers in 2025
This is a summary of the changes from ISO/TS 22002-1:2009 Prerequisite programmes on food safety Part 1: Food manufacturing to the requirements of both ISO 22002-100 Prerequisite programmes on food safety Part 100: Requirements for the food, feed and packaging supply chain and ISO 22002-1:2025 ISO 22002-1:2025 Prerequisite programmes on food safety Part 1: Food manufacturing.
For Food Manufacturers, ISO 22002-1:2025 Prerequisite programmes on food safety Part 1: Food manufacturing is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 22000 and ISO 22000-100.
ISO 22002-100:2025 Prerequisite programmes on food safety Part 100: Requirements for the food, feed and packaging supply chain is intended to be used when establishing, implementing and maintaining the PRPs specific to the organization(s) in conjunction with ISO 22000:2018, 8.2.
ISO 22002-100:2025 comprises the common PRPs from the prior sector-specific series ISO 22002-1, ISO 22002-2, ISO 22002-4, ISO 22002-5, ISO 22002-6 and the new ISO 22002-7, to provide a unified understanding of PRPs across sectors and to simplify PRPs for organizations operating in multiple sectors.
Where unique sector-specific PRPs remain, or a new sector is added with unique PRPs, these are provided in the other parts of the ISO 22002 series, which are designed to be used in conjunction with this document.
In the following sections you will see the main changes by section for each of the ISO 22002 standards and where the changes are from 2009 to the 2025 version.
