Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF)

The Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed, commonly known as RASFF, plays a pivotal role in the dairy industry by facilitating the rapid identification and withdrawal of contaminated food and feed products. This system is essential for maintaining food safety standards and protecting public health.

Coordination with AESAN

RASFF works closely with the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) to monitor and address outbreaks related to food safety. This collaboration ensures that any potential threats are swiftly managed, reducing the risk of widespread contamination.

Operational Mechanism

The RASFF system operates by rapidly disseminating information about food safety risks among its members, which include national food safety authorities. This allows for the quick implementation of measures to withdraw or recall affected products from the market.
