PennWhite Halal Certificate Expanded Again
The London based Halal Food Authority (HFA) has expanded the scope of our halal certification to include 22 Foamdoctor food-grade foam control agents. A copy of our new 2018-19 certificate, which includes details of the approved products, can be seen here.
We will be submitting more Foamdoctor products to the HFA for their approval and hope to eventually offer a range of halal certified products similar in scope to our kosher range which currently stands at 78 products.
PennWhite’s New ISO 9001:2015 Certificate
We have now received our new ISO 9001:2015 certificate from Intertek Certification limited. This is valid until 27th June 2021.
PennWhite Certified Kosher For 17th Year
Rabbi Kay from the Manchester Beth Din visited PennWhite earlier this month to perform his annual inspection of our Middlewich facilities. During his visit the Rabbi audited our raw material storage area, production unit and finished goods storage and dispatch facility, as well as processes related to the manufacture of our FoamDoctor food-grade foam control agents.
Following his inspection he certified that 78 of our FoamDoctor antifoam and defoamer products are “Kosher and Parev” and conform to the Jewish laws of ritual purity.
This is our seventeenth year of Kosher certification and our new 2018-19 certifcate can be viewed by following the link below. This certificate lists the certified FoamDoctor products which can be shipped with a hechsher, more commonly known as a “Kosher symbol”, on their label.
PennWhite Certified to ISO 9001:2015
On the 18th and 19th of April Intertek Certification Ltd visited PennWhite to carry out a certifcation audit of our ISO 9001 Quality Management System against the latest 2015 version of the ISO standard.
After an intensive two days Intertek confirmed that our policies, procedures and business practices are in compliance with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015. As a result PennWhite’s ISO 9001 Quality Management System will be certifed to the latest version of the Standard once our current certifcation to ISO 9001:2008 expires at the end of June 2018.
