Vytrus Biotech, a Spanish company specializing in active ingredients derived from plant biotechnology for the cosmetics industry, has announced that its ingredients are now Halal-certified.

"We are delighted to have obtained halal certification for our ingredients, said Oscar Expósito, CEO, CSO and co-founder of Vytrus Biotech. This certification is in line with our mission to offer innovative, sustainable and ethically produced ingredients. It enables us to meet the needs of our customers in the Muslim community and those who appreciate Halal-certified products."
The certification includes a rigorous assessment of the entire production process, ensuring that every step, from raw material sourcing to the final product, complies with Halal requirements. It opens up new markets for Vytrus Biotech, enabling the company to address a wider audience and meet the growing demand for high-quality, ethically produced ingredients.
Halal certification is becoming increasingly important in the global cosmetics industry. It guarantees that products meet the expectations of Muslim consumers, who want to be sure that the items they use are authorized by Islamic law.
Vytrus' Halal-certified active ingredients are now available to cosmetics brands seeking to develop products for the Halal market. This certification opens up new prospects for collaboration and growth in regions where Halal products are in high demand.
