Special focus on food safety

CEA growers of fruit and vegetables are very food-safety aware. No wonder, because their products are often offered to consumers raw, like leafy greens and soft fruits, or even with substrate attached, like lettuces or potted herbs.

Jiffy production plants have been ISO certified in a number of categories, including food safety, for many years. In addition, we offer RHP-certified substrates and a range of OMRI-listed organic solutions.

While we do not produce food as such, we take our responsibility as a supplier to the industry very seriously. We promise that we will continue to monitor our products closely so that we provide our customers with the safest options. We take multiple steps to ensure the quality of our products is second to none. These steps include:

  • Continually working to minimize the risk of contamination throughout our supply chain, from harvesting raw materials to delivering the finished products to our customers
  • Complying with our strict global end-to-end traceability system
  • Repeatedly checking for a wide range of chemical, biological, and physical contaminants, e.g., vermin and pathogens
