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.
| Status | Input | Why it matters | Source | Status | Flag |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Collagenase — | Collagenase is an animal-derived enzyme, posing a high risk for halal compliance [1]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Excipients (general) — | Excipients are the highest-risk category in pharmaceuticals due to common animal-derived default sources like magnesium stearate, stearic acid, and glycerin, which require source verification [1, E422, E470b]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Fermentation media — | If GELITA AG uses fermentation in its processes, the culture medium must be verified to ensure no pork-based peptone is used, which would render the product non-halal [1, E415, E418]. | — | MashboohAI-inferred | — | |
Gelatin (pharmaceutical grade) — | Gelatin is a critical excipient in pharmaceuticals, predominantly porcine-derived (80%) or bovine (20%). Porcine gelatin is haram, and bovine requires halal slaughter verification [1, E441]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Heparin — | Heparin is traditionally porcine-derived (pork intestine mucosa), which is haram. Bovine alternatives exist but require verification [1]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — |

What this supplier means for buyers
GELITA AG is certified by Halal Certification Islamic Centre Aachen, indicating a foundational level of halal compliance. However, the company's raw material inputs, such as Gelatin (pharmaceutical grade), Collagenase, Heparin, and general excipients, present significant halal risks due to their common animal-derived sources [1]. For example, gelatin (E441) is frequently porcine, and heparin is traditionally from pork intestine mucosa, both of which are haram [1, 6]. Even fermentation media carry a medium risk if pork-based peptone is used [1]. European B2B buyers targeting Muslim-majority markets should request detailed halal certificates for specific products, ensuring the certifier is recognized in their target market (e.g., MY, ID, SA, AE, TR, GCC) and that all high-risk ingredients have verified halal sources and processing.
