Our manufacturing partners are accredited to ISO 22000:2018 Food Safety Management Standard and FSSC 22000 Food Safety System Certification, which includes Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point (HACCP) compliance. We specify the use of FDA and EU approved raw materials for direct food contacts in manufacturing and as a result this allows us to strictly observe food hygiene regulations.
