Q) What is “Vegan”?

Click to View

"Vegan" refers to a lifestyle and dietary choice that excludes the use of animal products or by-products in food, clothing, and other areas. Vegan products are entirely plant-based and free from ingredients derived from animals, such as meat, dairy, eggs, honey, or animal-derived additives. This practice often aligns with ethical, environmental, and health considerations. Vegan certification ensures that products meet strict standards, providing clarity and trust to consumers seeking cruelty-free and plant-based options.

Q) What is the difference between "Vegan" and "Plant-based"?

Click to View

The terms "Vegan" and "Plant-based" are often used interchangeably but have distinct meanings.

"Vegan" refers to a lifestyle that excludes all animal-derived products and by-products in every aspect, including food, clothing, and personal care. It is rooted in ethical considerations such as animal welfare and environmental sustainability.

On the other hand, "Plant-based" primarily describes a diet that focuses on consuming foods derived from plants, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, and legumes. While plant-based diets may avoid animal products, they are not necessarily vegan as they may allow occasional consumption of animal-derived ingredients or products.

Q) What is the vegan certification process and how long does it take?

Click to View

The certification process involves application submission, controls and evaluations, and addressing any deviations identified during audits. Vegan certification typically takes around 1 to 3 months, though the timeline and required documents may vary depending on the certification type and agency.
