Neways Granted Islamic Certification for Dozens of Products!

SPRINGVILLE, UTAH (April 14, 2009)—

Neways is pleased to announce that the company has been certified by the Islamic Food and Nutrition Council of America (IFANCA) as providing dozens of products that meet Islamic dietary laws and customs. As part of the certification process, IFANCA representatives performed on-site inspections of Neways manufacturing facilities.

"We’re happy to better serve our Muslim customers," says Neways vice president of sales and marketing Jennifer Wolbers. "Because this certification reflects high standards of cleanliness and avoidance of questionable ingredients, all our members can take pride in the fact that so many of our products qualified for this designation. It reinforces our commitment to transforming homes into Neways Healthy Homes."

Known by the term halal, IFANCA certification verifies that designated Neways products are permissible and lawful for consumption by Muslims. Neways products certified as halal include numerous items in the categories of household, personal care, skin care, hair care, aromatherapy, baby care, dental, fitness, and sun care.

Halal regulations are almost 1,400 years old. With 1.5 billion Muslims in the worldwide population, about one out of every four human beings is a Muslim, the vast majority of whom observe halal regulations. "Halal certification is important to Muslim consumers," said an INFANCA representative. "It clears the doubt, saves them time on reading labels, and provides peace of mind and satisfaction."

IFANCA certifies over 7,000 products, including not only food items but also cosmetics, packaging materials, pharmaceuticals, and nutritional products.
