We offer both conventional/organic Corn products and certified Gluten Free Corn products. Corn is naturally gluten-free, but it is a matter of where the corn is grown, milled, and packaged that determines if it is conventional or certified gluten-free. This is the main difference between conventional/organic and gluten-free corn products, as otherwise, the milling and packaging process is the same.
Our conventional/organic Corn products are made with corn grown in fields where wheat is also grown. Conventional corn is milled and packaged in a facility, and on shared equipment, with wheat and other gluten-containing products. Therefore, conventional Corn is not tested for gluten levels as there could be a chance of cross contact with wheat and other gluten-containing products.
Some of our customers with gluten or wheat allergies can use our conventional/organic Corn products, as they are naturally gluten-free but not tested or certified. For our customers who do need certified Gluten Free Corn products, we make those available as well.
Our certified Gluten Free Corn products are sourced from corn suppliers who are committed to practices for eliminating the presence of gluten. Our suppliers are innovative in controlling the presence of gluten through a variety of methods, including crop rotation management plans and the use of optical sorting technology.
We thoroughly batch test every gluten-free product in our quality control laboratory upon delivery, during production, and after packaging. We adhere to a standard of less than 20 parts per million of gluten. Products marked with a red GF logo are processed and packaged in our dedicated gluten free facility and batch tested in our quality control laboratory using an ELISA Gluten Assay test.
