‘British Retail Consortium Global Standard for Food Safety’, shortly ‘BRC’ is a renown international standard in the domain of food safety and quality in the food industry.
It sets the requirements that quality verification at corporate level needs to comply with in order to guarantee the highest possible product safety and customer satisfaction. As is the case with most (inter)national standards and systems to guarantee quality, food safety is managed in accordance with the HACCP-principles (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) which implies listing of any product danger and the elaboration of prevention measures per listed danger for further avoidance, elimination or reduction up to an acceptable level.
RiskPlaza represents a database containing details on food safety and potential dangers of raw materials and ingredients. Ground terms for obtaining a RiskPlaza audit+ certificate are the BRC certification and a successful management of all food safety dangers of raw materials identified in the Riskplaza database. Backed by a well managed quality system, the Riskplaza+ certificate was easily obtained.
In terms of by-products (animal feed), Dossche Mills has obtained the internationally recognized FCA certificate (Belgian mills) and the GMP+ certificate (Dutch mill) on the basis of which we guarantee our by-products’ quality.
Apart from securing our products’ safety and quality, Dossche Mills is keen on preserving biodiversity and on reducing the ecological footprint. That is why we offer a range of BIO certified flour and grain references. In this way, the buyer is certain to receive products made of natural ingredients and manufactured without artificial additives.
Sustainability is important to Dossche Mills. It was hence logical to aim for a RSPO certificate for our raw material palm oil in support of our policy. By purchasing sustainable palm oil, we are both supportive of social needs such as local farmers’ income and of the protection of local wildlife. In addition, we make sure to secure raw materials for the generations to come. A great example on how sustainability is advantageous for all parties concerned.

‘100% wholegrain’ quality mark identifies wholegrain as referred to in the Dutch ‘Warenwetbesluit’. It allows you to easily recognize wholegrain bread. We distinguish wholegrain bread from other wholegrain articles such as bread replacing products containing other ingredients on top of wholegrain.
Any company in the food sector is legally required to set up an auto control system (ACS) in accordance with HACCP principles (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) to secure safety, quality and traceability of food.
Should the country in which the food company is located have a so-called sector guide or hygiene code, the food company has the possibility to have its observance certified. This is the case for Belgium. As all our production sites have had a BRC certificate for years, an ACS certificate for the Belgian mills of Dossche Mills was easy to obtain.
