Gain the confidence of retailers and consumers

The gluten-free products market is one of the fastest-growing health and lifestyle markets. Many people are either discovering they're gluten-intolerant or are avoiding gluten as a lifestyle choice. Those who suffer from gluten-related disorders cannot tolerate the proteins found in wheat, rye, and barley, and for many people, eating products with these ingredients can cause serious health issues.

Manufacturers may declare their products gluten-free, but due to the increase in competition within this market, achieving gluten-free certification is the best way to win the trust of retailers and consumers. Differentiate your products from competition and gain trust through certification to the standards set by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO) and other GFSI Benchmarked Standards.

SGS provides an independent GFCO certification service that confirms the gluten-free status of your end-products and ingredients against strict guidelines. GFCO's focus on consumer safety has made it one of the most widely used, trusted, and recognized gluten-free certification marks.

The requirements for GFCO-certified products include:

All products and the ingredients they contain must contain 10ppm or less of gluten.
Manufacturing plants must undergo an annual audit.
Manufacturing plants must regularly submit finished-product testing reports to GFCO for review.
Applicants must also comply with all government regulations regarding allergens, gluten-free labeling and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
