“MAKING V IS ION A REAL ITY”
We believe that people are entitled to food
that is not contaminated by packaging that contains
processed stearates or animal by-products.
Whether for religious, ethical, health or conservationist
reasons, unnecessary contaminants should
not taint the foods we eat everyday.
We believe in protecting our children, our heritages
and our environment for generations to come.

The fear is in the unknown.
Currently there is extensive usage of animal stearates in the manufacturing of plastic food service and packaging products. The concentration of these chemicals in formulations can be as high as 2%.
These rendered animal by-products are unregulated by FDA, food safety or religious food inspectors.
They migrate to the surface of containers and films to interact with foods, especially when microwaved or frozen.
Consumers have no way of knowing if these chemicals exist in their plastics.
“Consumers have no way of knowing if these chemicals exist
in their plastic products.”

The plastic products your food is wrapped in, or that you put into or on your body, probably contain animal by-products or stearates!
Whether you are talking about plastic bowls, baby bottles, dental floss, lip balms, inhalers and more, you may be ingesting a form of meat into your body.
Religious leaders are becoming increasingly concerned about the presence of animal by-products in food contact materials.
Vegetarians, animal-rights, health food advocates and eco-conscious consumers have increased interest in certified foods and do not want them contaminated with animal by-products.
Mad Cow Disease (BSE), Foot and Mouth and other animal-related diseases have raised major concerns among non-observant consumers regarding the consumption of animal by-products.
The food industry is now acknowledging the need for certified animal-free packaging.

Religious Muslims have similar food prohibitions to other religious markets. They are restricted to eating Halal meats, and do not eat any pork products. When one of their high religious leaders declares a fatwa, all Muslims are required to obey and execute it.
So far, we have endorsements from the Halal Chamber of Commerce and the Muslim Holy Azar in the form of a fatwa.The implications are huge as the Muslim market is well over 1 billion worldwide.

… from theChairman of the Muslim Fatwa Committee
The sentence in bold is a
mandate for “ERC”.
…We call upon companies and
corporations importing these
materials [animal stearate plastics]
and the manufacturers of these
products to ban them. Those keen
on upholding Islamic Law and the
implementation of the provisions
of Islam should set up Control
and Inspection committees to
monitor companies that violate
Islamic teaching by their use of
these forbidden materials,
particularly since alternatives
have been found, in accordance
with the scholar who posed the
question.
