GMP Certification – Introduction, Process, Documents Required & Why Choose Global X Compliance
Introduction
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Certification is a globally recognized standard that ensures products are consistently manufactured and controlled according to established quality standards. It is primarily designed to minimize risks involved in pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and medical device production. GMP compliance assures consumers and regulatory authorities that products are safe, pure, and effective.
The GMP framework covers all aspects of production, from raw materials, premises, and equipment to staff training, hygiene, and documentation. By following GMP, businesses ensure product quality and gain customer trust, along with smoother market access in India and abroad.
