Safe, healthy, and sustainable solutions

for your business and customers

Quality and food safety certificates

Our products and processing methods regularly undergo audits and supervisions to safeguard that they comply with the certifications, standards, and regulations that guarantee you safe, healthy, and sustainable solutions.

Third-party certifications

We use accredited third-party organizations to verify that our production facilities operate sustainably and that every final product complies with specific standards for safety, quality, and environmental protection. 

Food safety standards

Food safety is a prerequisite for producing food products. All AAK plants are certified in accordance with internationally recognized food safety standards and audited by accredited third parties. Critical Control Points (CCPs) are identified, monitored and recorded, and the food safety management system is frequently audited by local audit teams. Finally, products are not released for delivery before the local Quality Control function has verified that food safety and product specification requirements are met.
