ProAmpac's Washington Site Receives SQF Level 2 Certification

ProAmpac Washington facility
September 11, 2018

ProAmpac has announced that its Auburn, Washington facility has been awarded Level 2 Food Safety Management Certification by the Safe Quality Food (SQF) Institute. 

SQF is a recognized organization by the Global Food Safety Initiative, as well as retailers and food service providers around the world who require a rigorous, credible food safety management system. 

Auburn is ProAmpac’s 14th facility to be recognized with food-quality certification and ProAmpac’s eighth manufacturing facility to be certified to SQF Level 2.             

“ProAmpac continues to focus on providing customers with high-quality products they expect,” says Tom Geyer, president of ProAmpac’s U.S. flexibles division. “The SQF certification for Auburn now offers our West Coast customers a regional fulfillment option. ProAmpac is committed to quality systems and certifications that support and reflect our customers’ growth and success. Work is currently underway to certify additional facilities to meet the growing demands of our food customers in North America.” 

Rob Manning, vice president of quality, adds: “We are constantly demonstrating our commitment to SQF certification. ProAmpac strives to exceed the growing number of requirements to ensure food safety. Auburn’s SQF certification is a milestone. We are proud to have a system in place for monitoring, validating and improving the manufacturing of flexible packaging materials, and we plan to acquire additional SQF facility certifications throughout the remainder of 2018. ProAmpac appreciates our employees’ hard work as we strive to provide quality products to our customers.”
