The zur Mühlen Group not only stands for a great taste, it also stands for outstanding quality. Ever year the company is audited by an independent certification institute and always achieves top marks. The Group is fully committed to this quality standard.
International Food Standard
As one of the first German companies, the zur Mühlen Group was certified according to the
"International Food Standard (IFS)"; this is checked regularly by independent auditors from
qualified institutes. The IFS criteria "Higher Level" symbolises that the company satisfies the
very highest recognised international quality stage which trade organisations demand from
their suppliers. |

British Retail Consortium
The zur Mühlen Group is also certified in accordance with the guidelines of the British Retail
Consortium (BRC). This trade association of the British wholesalers and retailers has a large
influence within the European Community with regard to product safety, food laws and the
environment. Accordingly, many European trade organisations expect their suppliers to be
BRC-certified. |

QS testing system
The QS testing system guarantees the consumer quality assurance across all stages. All
plants in the zur Mühlen Group are subject to the three-stage QS control system that checks
the food production process from the origins through processing up to and including the
marketing of the products. The consumer recognises QS-inspected products by the QS symbol. |

Bio
The zur Mühlen Group was certified according to this ecological standard in 2007 allowing it
to use the Bio stamp on all products produced accordingly. Bio (organic) articles are subject
to constant checks by the DE-005 Eco control office. This means that the zur Mühlen Group
is regularly audited by the Institute for Brand Ecology. Neutral Eco control offices audit
suppliers and buyers. |
