Glutenfree
Since March 2009, De Halm’s gluten-free flakes have been packaged on a gluten-free packaging line.
This concerns the following flakes: maize, rice, buckwheat, millet, quinoa and amaranth. Every batch of gluten-free flakes we produce is tested for gluten before packaging. Once we hear from the laboratory that the flakes are, indeed, gluten free, they are packaged on the gluten-free line. In principle, therefore, flakes with a sell-by date from 1 March 2010 onwards are already gluten free. The gluten-free line is situated at a separate production location where no products are admitted that contain gluten.
Products being packaged now are labelled as gluten free. There are therefore still products in the chain that are not labelled as such but are, in fact, gluten free.
Why is there no gluten free logo on the packaging?
We are taking care of this at the moment. The gluten-free production of flakes is now part of the quality system in our HACCP certification. The packaging will therefore shortly bear the gluten free logo, too.
