BRC Audit ‘AA’ Grade Retained

Based in the UK, FC Cartons, a provider of specialist carton finishing solutions, confirms that it continues its British Retail Consortium (BRC) – Packaging & Packaging Materials standard at the prestigious ‘AA’ grade level. Director of FC Cartons, Debra Woodyatt, commented, “We have said many times before that we are always looking for continual improvement across all aspects of our business – from process requirements, to warehousing space and now we’ve achieved another BRC Audit with ‘AA’ and 100% compliance.

“With an ‘AA’ grade last year with 100% compliance, the pressure was on to retain it. I was thrilled with our 100%, it just reinforces the team’s positive work ethic that we all have and every one of our staff understands the importance of external accreditation to our business. It’s an exciting time and with this Audit under our belt, we now look forward to our new production facility being completed and fully operational. This will allow us to achieve further improvements in all areas of our business which will further enhance the quality of service we can deliver to our customers.”

Managing Director, FC Cartons, David Woodyatt, added, “With just 3 months to the audit, we moved all production to our new facility. Right up until the last day of the audit we were concerned that we may have missed something in our interpretation of the standard when we had applied it to the new production area. You can imagine how pleased we all were when it was announced that we had achieved 100% on top of a huge move and refit. A massive thank you to everyone with a special mention for our BRC compliance team.”
