Kosher food grade
Our food-grade material is STAR-K Kosher with the certificate original on file, alongside our ISO systems and lab signals.
What we do not yet claim
We are precise about limits: additive-numbering compliance (for example E464 / E466) is not certified on file, so we do not make that specific claim; we state what we can document and hold the rest. Leave an email to receive the food-grade compliance pack.
Kosher original; laboratory signals. E-number compliance not on file – not claimed.
