"Among other crucial criteria are the production chain, that ensures continuous manufacturing process, no human contact with the product and impeccable cleanliness of both production and storage facilities. The company does not use any food additives, flavourings, gelatine, alcohols, and glycerine in its manufacturing process," the company says in a statement.
Additionally, the rabbis check whether the technological process and the final products meet the requirements of the technology and product specifications and labeling.
