The Gluten Intolerance Group (GIG), a leader in the certification of gluten-free products and food services, announces its Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO) program has received ISO/IEC 17065:2012 (ISO 17065) accreditation from the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA). ISO 17065 is the international quality standard for organizations certifying products, processes and services. GFCO, the largest gluten-free certification program in North America, certifies more than 30,000 food, personal-care and supplement products.
GFCO uses the strictest standards for gluten-free certification, requiring products to have 10 parts per million (ppm) or less of gluten, rather than the 20ppm required by the FDA for gluten-free labeled products. GFCO not only certifies that a company’s processes meet GFCO's standards, but also that the product itself meets the 10ppm-or-less standard.
