What is GMP?
GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) is a system that ensures products are
consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards.
It minimizes risks involved in manufacturing that cannot be eliminated
through final product testing.
GMP focuses on proper manufacturing processes, hygiene, documentation,
and quality control to ensure safe and reliable products.
Why GMP Certification is Important
GMP certification helps organizations maintain product quality, meet
regulatory requirements, and build trust with customers and authorities.
- Ensures consistent product quality and safety

GMP vs ISO Standards
GMP focuses on manufacturing practices and product quality, whereas ISO
standards such as ISO 9001 or ISO 22000 provide a broader management
system framework. Many organizations implement GMP alongside ISO
standards for stronger quality and compliance control.
