Blue Marble Biomaterials Meets Kosher, Food Grade, and Quality Control standards in Missoula Facility.

Blue Marble Biomaterials’ http://www.bluemarblebio.com natural flavor and fragrance facility in Missoula, Montana is now fully kosher certified and food grade compliant. The company has developed a new process to produce natural aroma chemicals and raw materials sustainably using only plant-based feedstocks. Achieving kosher certification and food grade quality control is a milestone in the industry, demonstrating that Blue Marble’s new production processes are a viable addition to the natural flavoring and fragrance supply chain.

The company achieved kosher certification through a local rabbinical, the Vaad Hakashrus of Montana, who contracts with internationally recognized kosher certifying institutes such as Star-K and Kehila Kosher.

The company has also been working with SAFC, a partner since 2010, to achieve food grade documentation and quality control features.

Each product is guaranteed to be vegan, allergen-free, and produced using no genetically modified organisms.
