The QS (Qualität und Sicherheit GmbH) certificate is a valuable accreditation that represents standards of quality and food safety and ensures transparency traceability throughout the production and distribution chain. At Normec Groen Agro Control, we understand the importance of this certification and help and support customers in achieving and maintaining the seal.
The QS is a German quality assurance system used in the food production chain, including the horticultural sector. The certificate is recognized as one of the most trusted standards in the food industry within Europe. The QS database is an important part of this system and provides information on the quality and safety of various products, including vegetables, fruits and potatoes.
The QS database contains detailed information on all steps of the production chain, from farm to supermarket. The main objective is to provide transparency and ensure product traceability, so that consumers can trust in the quality and safety of food products.
Quality parameters: The database contains data on various quality parameters, such as size, color, ripeness, etc., depending on the type of product.
Safety information: It provides food safety information, including analyses of pesticide residues, microbial contamination and other potential risks.
Production information: The database contains information on production locations, times, methods and all steps taken to ensure product quality and safety.
Certifications: It contains information on certifications and compliance standards that producers must meet, such as GlobalGAP certifications and other industry-specific standards.
Producers and suppliers use the QS database to meet the requirements of food safety standards and to certify their products to the QS standard. Retailers and supermarkets use the database to monitor and ensure the quality and safety of the products they sell. Consumers can, in some cases, access information from the QS database through QR codes or other traceability mechanisms on product packaging to verify the origin and safety of products.
In short, the QS database is a valuable tool for producers, suppliers, retailers and consumers in the food production chain, helping to ensure the quality and safety of food products.
We offer comprehensive support to companies seeking QS certification. Our teams guide customers through the entire certification process, from initial audit to recommendations for improvement. By achieving QS certification, you strengthen the confidence of consumers and trading partners. The certificate confirms that your products meet the highest standards of safety, traceability and sustainability.
