Certifications
SmartLabel® includes certifications from independent organizations that have meaningful and consistent standards for product composition, environmental protection and/or social justice.
BCTGM Cert
The BCTGM Cert attribute is given to products that bear the 'BCTGM' logo.
Kosher Dairy Equipment Cert
The DE (Dairy Equipment) certification signifies that a product is kosher certified and has been manufactured on an equipment that is also used to manufacture kosher dairy products where no kosherization occured in between. It is important to note that a thorough cleaning of the equipment still occurs between products and there is no dairy contained in products labeled DE.
Orthodox Union
The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America (the “Orthodox Union”) is the sole and exclusive owner of the OU Kosher Logo certification mark, a federally and internationally registered trademark for kosher certification. The appearance of "PARVE" next to the OU mark means that the product does not contain any meat or dairy ingredients.
Whole Grain Council
The Basic Whole Grain Stamp signifies that a product contains at least 8g (8 grams) - a half serving - of whole grain, but may also contain some refined grain. Even if a product contains large amounts of whole grain (23g, 37g, 41g, etc.), it will use the Basic Stamp if it also contains extra bran, germ, or refined flour. The number within the stamp signifies how many grams of whole grain ingredients are in a serving of the product.
