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.
| Input | Why it matters | Source | Status | Flag | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Colourants (e.g., Carmine E120) | If natural colours are part of flavour formulations, high-risk colourants like Carmine (E120) must be excluded as they are haram [2, 3]. | — | Unknown | — | |
Enzyme preparations | If enzymes are used in flavour production, the fermentation medium and processing aids must be verified for porcine derivatives [2, 7]. | — | Unknown | — | |
Ethanol (as solvent/carrier) | The source and use of ethanol in flavours and fragrances is a critical control point, with varying permissibility depending on the target market's halal standards [2, 3]. | — | Non-halal | — | |
Flavour raw materials (general) | Source of flavour components (e.g., animal-derived, fermentation media) needs verification to ensure halal compliance [1, 2]. | — | Unknown | — | |
Fragrance raw materials (general) | Source of fragrance components and any animal-derived ingredients must be verified [3]. | — | Unknown | — | |
Glycerin | Glycerin, if used, must be verified as plant-derived or synthetic, not animal (especially porcine) [2, 3]. | — | Unknown | — |

What this supplier means for buyers
Robertet, as a natural flavours and fragrances house, operates in a mature halal sector with established certification processes [1]. The primary halal concerns will revolve around the source of raw materials for flavours (e.g., animal-derived components, alcohol as an extraction solvent) and the alcohol content in fragrances, which has varying scholarly positions depending on the target market's standards (e.g., Malaysia MS 2200 vs. more moderate European certifiers) [3]. Given the 'unassessed' status, a full audit of raw material sourcing, processing aids, and alcohol usage is critical.
