VANCOUVER, BC and KIBBUTZ YIFAT, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / May 12, 2023 / Beyond Oil Ltd. (CSE:BOIL) ("Beyond Oil" or the "Company"), a food-tech innovation company extending the life of frying oil, reducing costs and waste, is pleased to announce that Halal Quality Control, a globally recognized and accredited Halal certification body, has awarded Beyond Oil's frying oil filter powder with a Halal Certificate (the "Certificate"), acknowledging that Beyond Oil has followed all necessary guidelines and preparations to ensure that its product is lawful and permitted under Islamic law.
"Halal certifications are necessary to export food and other products to Islamic countries," said Jonathan Or, CEO of Beyond Oil. "This certification allows us to serve a broader base of customers in those countries where individuals will only purchase foods and items that are guaranteed to be Halal. This is another step towards rapidly expanding our customer base and reaching scale."
Israel Ministry of Health Update
In its news release dated September 23, 2022, the Company inadvertently advised that it had received a non-objection letter from the Israel Ministry of Health in respect of the use of Beyond Oil's product as a filter aid for the filtration of frying oils in the Israeli market. In fact, a specific non-objection letter was not issued to the Company.
The Company wishes to clarify that the Ministry of Health in Israel does not grant non-objection letters and certificates for products included under the category of "Filtering & Processing Aids" in Israel. Unlike Health Canada and the US Food & Drug Administration ("FDA"), in Israel, the use of processing aids does not require pre-marketing approval or registration from any regulatory body.
However, the Israel Ministry of Health gave the required regulatory information and instructions about the use of "Filtering Aid".
Beyond Oil wishes to confirm that the Beyond Oil product does not require any preliminary or current or future approval from any government entity, including the Israel Ministry of Health, for marketing, distributing or selling its product in Israel.
Dr. Sigalit Ariely-Portnoy, the CEO of GSAP, an international service firm specializing in food tech regulations and a regulatory Consultant to Beyond Oil said, "Based on the regulations in Israel, Beyond Oil's product is considered to be a food processing aid material and does not require any preliminary or ongoing approval for marketing in Israel as long as it continues to comply with the US Food & Drug Administration and the Food Chemical Codex specifications."
The Company received a non-objection letter from the FDA in March 2022, on the basis that all the Beyond Oil product ingredients meet food-grade specifications of the FDA. In May 2022, Beyond Oil received a non-objection letter from Health Canada and a National Sanitation Foundation certification.
