FDA EIR - Brenntag Southwest, Inc - October 19, 2012

An FDA inspection of Brenntag Southwest, Inc., located in Oklahoma City, OK, was conducted on October 16, 2012. This initial inspection, classified as a FY13 FSMA HR Food Inspection under C.P. 7303.803, Domestic Food Safety Program Inspections, focused on the firm's role as an ambient storage warehouse and distribution facility for food-grade chemicals used as food additives and non-food grade chemicals. The evaluation covered the facility's grounds, product storage, pest control, and distribution practices to ensure adherence to the Domestic Food Safety Program. Notably, no food additives were in inventory at the time, which impacted the scope of product-specific exams. Crucially, the inspection concluded with "No Action Indicated" (NAI), as no objectionable conditions or violations were observed. As a result, an FDA 483 Inspectional Observations form was not issued. No samples were collected, and there were no refusals during the inspection. A routine re-inspection, based on FSMA guidelines, is scheduled for the future.
