GFCP BRC Global Standard

The Gluten-Free Certification Program is a standard BRC developed with a set of requirements founded upon proven, globally recognized and science-based food preventative safety protocols. As opposed to other gluten-free claims, the GFCP Standard does not rely solely on analytical testing results.

Service details

It provides a framework for the management and control of gluten in gluten-free products, in the manufacture, processing and packing of:

• Processed foods, both own brand and customer branded
• Ingredients for use by food service companies, catering companies and/or food manufacturers
• Pet foods

• Natural Health Products
• Drugs

A GFCP-certificated facility/site verifies its existing Gluten-Free management system annually, conducted by a trained and approved auditor, who is employed by an ISO accredited and GFCP licensed third-party certification body.
