The Plant-Based Certification Program is applicable at any step of the food industry and it sets requirements for products and byproducts from non-animal origin. The Plant-Based Standard (PBS) has an allowance of 5% for food additives and follows the Global Food Safety Initiative (GSFI), ensuring good practices and avoiding cross-contamination of products.
The goal of the PBS is to verify the accuracy of Plant-Based claims in the supply chain and final products.
The main difference between Plant-Based and Vegan? Their claims. Meanwhile vegan claims encompass a lifestyle based on cruelty free, Plant-Based claims focus on the product and its ingredients coming from plant origin.
