Halal Access Partners is not a certification body. Layers marked "Compliant" or "Non-compliant" reflect our assessment based on public documents, uploaded certificates and supplier-submitted evidence — they are not a certifier's ruling. Rows tagged AI-inferred were extracted by our classifier and have not yet been reviewed by a human analyst.
Third-party certificates on file are shown as evidence with their original scope, expiry and issuer — always verify them with the certifier before purchase. See ourmethodology.
Halal Compliance Stack
Every supplier is assessed across seven independent layers. Layers marked "unassessed" are shown honestly — they haven't been proven either way.
Raw-material inputs have been AI-assessed; buyer diligence should verify supplier declarations and halal evidence for each flagged input.
| Status | Input | Why it matters | Source | Status | Flag |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Enzyme preparation — | Enzymes, if produced by fermentation, require verification of the culture medium to ensure no porcine-derived peptone or other non-halal animal products are used [2, 7]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Fermented ingredients (general) — | Any fermented ingredient requires confirmation of the producing organism, culture medium, nitrogen source, and downstream processing aids to be free from porcine derivatives [2, 6, 7]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Probiotic cultures — | Probiotics are fermented ingredients; the culture medium must be free from pork peptone or other non-halal animal derivatives [2, 6, 7]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — |

What this supplier means for buyers
Chr Hansen (Novonesis) operates in the food ingredients sector, supplying cultures and enzymes, which are high-risk categories for halal compliance. All listed inputs, including 'Fermented ingredients (general)', 'Enzyme preparation', and 'Probiotic cultures', are fermentation-derived. This necessitates rigorous verification of the culture medium to ensure the absence of porcine-derived peptone or other non-halal animal products, as these are common critical control points [2, 6, 7]. European B2B buyers targeting Muslim-majority markets like Malaysia or Indonesia must ensure the supplier can provide detailed halal evidence for these inputs, as the overall halal position is currently unassessed.
