Star of Jacob (SINOQUAL)Jacob Star Halal Certification is the China office of the largest Halal certification agency in China. Jacob Star Halal Certification ensures that food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and their ingredients meet all Halal certification regulations, authorizes factories to display Halal logos on their products, and provides Halal certification training and Halal market research.
The process for obtaining Halal certification is relatively simple. Upon receiving your Halal certification application, Jacob Star's Halal Certifiers will evaluate your company's products and ingredients. A contract will then be drafted, detailing the requirements and obligations of both parties to achieve and maintain the highest Halal standards. Once the contract is signed and executed, inspectors familiar with the food industry from our Halal certification agency will regularly visit the factory to verify compliance with the contract terms by inspecting products, ingredients, and labeling.
Prosecutor representatives familiar with the food industry will visit the factory and pay special attention to the following three points:
component:
All ingredients in a factory, whether used in halal certified products or not, must be thoroughly assessed to see if they affect the halal nature of the product. Producing non-halal certified products on the same equipment as halal certified products can affect the halal nature of the certified product, so thorough assessment is required to ensure that the halal nature of the product is not compromised.
Production process:
Auditing and analyzing production details is always necessary during the Halal certification process. If non-Halal raw materials are processed on the equipment, auditing production details is crucial. Therefore, in ensuring that the factory complies with Halal standards, it is important to determine the heating equipment used (such as steam heating) and the transportation method of raw materials and other ingredients (such as conveyor belts or pipes?), and even the packaging procedures, all of which may affect the Halal properties.
product:
When a factory is granted a Halal certificate, it is also granted a Halal certification mark that can be printed on the outer packaging of its products. Every Halal-certified product must clearly display the Halal certification mark on its outer packaging. The Halal mark is prohibited on the outer packaging of uncertified products. It is also crucial for factories to constantly check their Halal-certified product list to ensure that any products printed with the Halal certification mark are on the Halal-certified product list.
Furthermore, new ingredients may not be used in factories without the approval of the Halal certification body. If new ingredients are used without permission, this could affect the Halal certification of the factory's products, jeopardizing the Halal status of the products. Therefore, if a factory needs to add new ingredients to its production (whether for Halal certified products or not), it must apply to the Halal certification body in advance. Once the body approves the addition, the new ingredients can be used normally.
