For manufacturers

Is your plant a straightforward kosher case?

Thirteen questions about your facility, and an honest read on what certifying it would actually involve — including when the answer is that it is harder than you have been told.

1What does this facility make?

Tick everything that runs here, even occasionally.

2Will this site also make product that is not kosher certified?
3Is there a heat step — cooking, baking, frying or roasting?
5Does the plant run a shared steam system — one boiler feeding jacketed kettles or exchangers?
6Roughly how many distinct ingredients and processing aids across all formulations?
7Do any formulations use enzymes, cultures, emulsifiers, flavours, colours, or anti-caking agents?

Most plants say yes once they check the free-flow agent in their salt.

8Do you receive any liquid ingredients in bulk — tankers or totes?
9Is there a regular period of at least 24 hours when the plant does not run?
10Would water damage any line if it were used to clean the line out?

Chocolate, oil, margarine and glycerine lines usually would.

11Are you buying new equipment as part of this?
12Does any buyer require a specific standard?
13Is any raw material grown in Israel?
