{"product_id":"gso-has-packaging","title":"GSO HAS - Packaging","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis documentation kit implements a sector-specific Halal Assurance System for packaging under the Halal Assurance System framework of the GCC Standardization Organization (GSO), the regional standardization body of the Gulf Cooperation Council states. The framework requires a documented, self-sustaining internal discipline that safeguards Halal integrity continuously, rather than relying on one-off inspection outcomes, and operates alongside the GSO 2055 series of product and certification standards. The scope covers the manufacture and handling of packaging materials destined for Halal products. Requirements address the composition of substrates, coatings, inks, adhesives and release agents, which must be free from porcine and other prohibited animal derivatives and from impermissible alcohol content; supplier declarations and certificates for raw materials of animal origin such as stearates and glycerine; hygiene and contamination control during production; and segregated storage and clear identification so that materials intended for Halal lines are never mixed with others. Implementation is anchored by an internal Halal committee that maintains documented procedures, approves ingredients and suppliers, conducts internal audits, trains personnel and manages corrective actions so that compliance is sustained between external assessments. The main benefits include conformity with GCC regulatory expectations, reduced risk of contamination or fraud, and strengthened confidence among Gulf importers, retailers and regulators, providing a practical gateway to the substantial GCC market. In the certification context, an accredited or approved certification body assesses the sector-specific Halal Assurance System alongside the applicable GSO product standards, with certificates maintained through periodic surveillance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41 ready-to-use, fully editable documents (manual, procedures, forms, records, checklists, guidance and training material).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLicense:\u003c\/strong\u003e single-organization license; delivered electronically as a ZIP archive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apex Global Solutions AGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56517053874516,"sku":"AGS-02-004","price":1290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1052\/4996\/4372\/files\/GSO-HAS-Packaging.png?v=1784574603","url":"https:\/\/agskits.com\/products\/gso-has-packaging","provider":"apex global solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
