Allergen Statement
Allergen Statement
Under our new ownership, Our Organics Trading Co. remains fully committed to the safety, health, and confidence of our customers. Building upon a 25-year legacy, our new management team is dedicated to providing high-quality organic and gluten-free style products with an unyielding commitment to rigorous food safety standards.
Naturally Gluten-Free Ingredients
Many of our raw ingredients and finished products—such as whole grains, seeds, legumes, and specialty starches—are inherently and naturally gluten-free by nature.
Please Note: While we source ingredients that are naturally free from gluten and maintain strict handling procedures, our products are not independently tested or certified gluten-free. Customers with severe allergies or Coeliac disease should consider this when purchasing.
Precautionary Allergen Labeling Notice
You may notice the following precautionary statement on product packaging across The Gluten Free Co. and Willowvale Organics ranges:
May contain traces of egg, dairy, and soy.
Why This Statement Appears on Our Labels
While our team takes extensive measures to prevent cross-contamination, some of our raw ingredient suppliers cannot guarantee that their facilities or supply chains are 100% free from trace amounts of egg, dairy, or soy. To ensure complete transparency and uphold customer trust, we include this precautionary statement on our packaging.
Our Quality Assurance & Cross-Contamination Procedures
We maintain strict quality control and preventative protocols within our packing facility to minimize cross-contact:
-
Dedicated Packing Areas: Products handled without gluten ingredients are packed in physically segregated zones away from gluten-containing items.
-
Color-Coded Utensils & Equipment: We utilize dedicated, color-coded tools and equipment that are sanitized and cleaned separately.
-
Scheduled Production Days: Dedicated production schedules are used to eliminate the risk of airborne or surface cross-contact.
-
HACCP Certified: Our facility operates under a certified HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) Food Safety System.
