HACCP Compliance for Food Equipment in Europe

HACCP Compliance Verification EU (HCV EU) is a voluntary registration program for commercial food equipment, developed by NSF. It allows manufacturers of food equipment and components sold on the European market to demonstrate their commitment to food safety and to support the compliance with relevant legislation and guidelines, such as Regulation (EC) 1935/2004. Specifiers of food equipment, such as foodservice establishments and retailers, can count on HCV to help them select equipment that supports their HACCP plan.
