Are OxyChem's food grade calcium chloride products produced under an HACCP system?

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a systematic approach to the identification, evaluation and control of food safety hazards. OxyChem has determined that an HACCP plan for its food grade calcium chloride products is not necessary due to its existing quality and regulatory compliance programs. OxyChem's food grade calcium chloride products are intended for use as food additives and are manufactured according to the guidelines defined in "The IPEC-PQG Good Manufacturing Practices Guide for Bulk Pharmaceutical Excipients" © 2006 The International Excipients Pharmaceutical Council. OxyChem's food grade calcium chloride products are tested for compliance with the U.S. Food Chemicals Codex, which requires that the material not be contaminated or adulterated.
