Ruffey’s Commitment to quality

What Does PrimeSafe Certification Mean?

PrimeSafe licenses and audits businesses involved in the production and sale of pet meat and pet food in Victoria. To obtain a Pet Food Establishment Licence, companies must comply with stringent standards, including the Standard for the Hygienic Production of Pet Meat (PISC Technical Report 88 – Amended 2009). These standards cover hygiene in harvesting, transportation, processing, identification, packaging, and storage of pet meat to ensure a safe and acceptable product.

Licensed facilities are subject to regular audits by PrimeSafe-approved third-party auditors. These audits verify that the facility adheres to food safety standards and maintains a compliant food safety program. The frequency of audits depends on the type of food processing and the associated risk to food safety.
