Our certifications for healthy pet food and quality

This certification, issued by TÜV Nord, focuses on the safety and quality of products and their processing. It intends to ensure a uniform manufacturing standard and examines the entire supply chain and production chain. As a manufacturer of super-premium pet food, we are certified by the IFS Food Standard when it comes to developing, mixing, packing and sterilising our high-quality pet food in tins, trays and pouches. And that’s not all: we pass the IFS audit at the highest level year in, year out.

Landguth pet food stands for healthy complete food that tastes great to cats and dogs. We don’t just want to benefit animals, but people and nature too – so we select only the best ingredients for our wet food, sourcing them from the local region where possible. This is evidenced by our organic certification under DE-ÖKO-007, which designates organically cultivated products within Germany in line with the guidelines for organic farming. This award confirms the manufacturers’ and farmers’ compliance with organic standards, the integrity of the supply chain and transparent production methods and the origin of the organic products. The certification body is accredited by a national monitoring organisation. It reviews and certifies organic products in line with European Union standards and national requirements within Germany. In short, the certification tells consumers that the products bearing it were produced in line with strict organic standards and meet the requirements of organic farming.

The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification evidences that fishery products come from sustainably managed fish stocks and were caught in an environmentally compatible manner. Products marked with the MSC label can be tracked along the entire supply chain, from the fishery to processing, right through to end consumers. This prevents them from being mixed with other products. The use of MSC-certified products sees us support the protection of the sea and show commitment to environmental responsibility – an attitude we pass on to our customers and consumers.

The ‘Arbeitgeber der Zukunft’ (‘employer of the future’) accreditation is awarded by DIND (Deutsches Innovationsinstitut für Nachhaltigkeit und Digitalisierung GmbH). In times when skilled workers are in short supply, in particular, this certification gives potential employees security that the employer will be satisfactory. But what is an ‘employer of the future’? This accreditation is given to companies that score highly in five review areas: modern leadership, innovation, digital transformation, friendliness towards employees and recruitment strategies. It is important to us to attract new specialists to Landguth and offer them the best terms and conditions here – and this benefits all our employees, too.
