Eurofins Food Safety Systems has been inducted into the Allergen Control Group Gluten-Free Certification Program (GFCP) as a newly trained and approved third-party auditing and certification company. This collaboration is a natural fit for Eurofins and ACG, who both share a common interest in food safety and consumer health, the companies said.
The GFCP is a science-based certification program for brand owners wishing to make a safe and reliable gluten-free product claim and is focused exclusively on annual certification of a site's internal manufacturing and gluten management system to complement end-product testing. The GFCP provides gluten-free brand building opportunities in partnership with North America's consumer-facing celiac organizations, the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) in the USA and the Canadian Celiac Association (CCA) in Canada.
“We are thrilled to partner with ACG to provide GFCP Audits to our customers,” said Eurofins’ Food Safety Systems Director Gary Smith. “This partnership will help the food industry verify their food safety programs, label claims, and meet the customer requirements being placed upon them.”
