Global market access with trusted trademarks
Given the rigour of BRCGS certification, the gluten-free standard has won the endorsement of a broad network of national and regional celiac associations. This allows certified sites the opportunity to use trusted on-pack association trademarks that have high consumer recognition.
Informed Trademark
(Worldwide)
The BRCGS Informed Gluten-Free trademark can be used on packaging in all territories not already covered by a dedicated trademark. The trademark is trusted by consumers looking for safe gluten-free food.

AOECS
(Europe)
The Association of European Coeliac Societies (AOECS) recognises BRCGS gluten-free certification as comparable to the AOECS Standard and recommends it to their National Coeliac Societies as an equivalent standard to grant the use of the Crossed Grain Symbol. Manufacturers can place their products in 39 territories across Europe and neighbouring economies with this highly trusted and recognised trademark. Our gluten-free standard contains an optional section that includes the AOECS standard requirements.
