About AIB Certification
In the bulk bag industry today, many companies claim to produce food grade bulk bags, but whose standards do they use to validate their claim. The definitive standard is the American Institute of Baking (AIB) standard for packaging facilities.
Global MHP's main bulk bag supplier has been audited by AIB and has been found to be in compliance with the requirements of AIB Certification. Bulk bags supplied by Global that carry AIB certification have the letters "AIB" in the part number.
If your application requires an AIB certified bag - talk to your Global MHP representative for a bulk bag solution to meet your food grade requirements.

AIB International is a corporation founded by the North American wholesale and retail baking industries in 1919 as a technology transfer center for bakers and food processors. The original mission of the organization was to "put science to work for the baker," and that basic theme is still central to all of the programs, products, and services provided by AIB to baking and general food production industries worldwide.
Although AIB's history has been traditionally linked with North American wholesale and retail baking, the Institute currently serves many segments of the food processing, distribution, foodservice, and retail industries worldwide. Today's AIB is well-positioned in the following areas:
AIB's staff includes experts in the fields of baking production; research related to experimental baking, cereal science, and nutrition; food safety and hygiene; occupational safety; and maintenance engineering.
AIB is headquartered in Manhattan, Kansas, home of Kansas State University and one of the major centers for wheat and related grain product research and development in the entire world. The Institute works closely with local grain science and trade organizations, and maintains links and working relationships with many other food production and equipment, food safety, trade development, and food legislation groups and university food science research programs both in the United States and abroad.
The AIB association currently has more than 900 members in many countries, ranging from international food ingredient and foodservice companies to small single-unit traditional and artisan retail bakeries.
