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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Glycerin (Glycerol) — | Glycerin (E422, CAS 56-81-5) is ubiquitous and its halal status is highly source-dependent, with porcine-derived glycerin being haram. Commercial glycerin is often a blend, requiring documented source segregation [1, 4]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Magnesium stearate — | The halal status depends on the source of stearic acid (animal/plant) and potential cross-contamination during processing [1, 2]. Magnesium stearate (E470b) is a common pharmaceutical issue where the source must be verified [3, 4]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Oleochemical fatty acid derivatives — | The halal status is contingent on the origin of the fatty acids (e.g., palm, tallow, mixed fats) and the processing methods [1, 3, 4]. Derivatives like mono- and diglycerides (E471) are very commonly animal-derived and are a frequent halal failure point [2, 4]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Stearic acid — | Most commercial stearic acid (CAS 57-11-4) is tallow-derived, which carries a high halal risk; palm stearic acid is halal [1, 5]. A common audit failure is stearic acid from mixed tallow/palm streams where segregation is not confirmed [2]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — | |
Stearyl alcohol — | Stearyl alcohol (CAS 112-92-5) is often tallow-derived, posing a high halal risk; plant-based sources are required for halal compliance [1, 5]. | — | Non-halal (assessed)AI-inferred | — |

What this supplier means for buyers
Peter Greven, a German manufacturer of metallic stearates and oleochemicals, holds a halal certification from HALAL CONTROL. However, the compliance stack indicates that the overall halal position is 'unassessed' at the company level, with only a 'partial' assessment of raw materials. Key inputs like Magnesium stearate, Stearic acid, and Oleochemical fatty acid derivatives are flagged as high risk due to their potential animal (tallow/porcine) origin, which is a critical control point for halal compliance [1, 3, 4, 5]. European B2B buyers targeting Muslim-majority markets must request Peter Greven's HALAL CONTROL certificate, verify its scope, and specifically confirm the plant-based origin of all fatty acid-derived inputs and glycerin to ensure market acceptance.
