Biocatalysts has a longstanding relationship with Manchester Beth Din, who has been providing Rabbis for nearly 30 years to oversee the production of kosher enzymes.
To comply with kashrut (Jewish dietary law), kosher foods may only contain kosher ingredients that have been processed using kosher methods. The rabbi being present at Biocatalysts ensures that this is the case and labels the enzyme ‘kosher’. However, following the growth of the company and the expanding market for kosher ingredients, the attainment of kosher accreditation for the manufacturing facility was the next step.
“Biocatalysts are now considered as experienced and knowledgeable in the aspect of religious accreditation, and we are delighted to share this knowledge with our customers, guaranteeing problem-free product compliance,” said Caroline West, marketing and customer services manager. “Over 50% of our standard products can be produced halal. Along with this growth in the number of materials covered has come a greater level of scrutiny and audits, which we have passed with flying colours.”
