Compare two marks
Side by side: what each mark assures and what it leaves open.
- Legal or private
- Private certification
- Kind
- Vegan
- What it assures
- Product meets the V-Label vegan criteria published by the scheme, including no animal ingredients as defined there.
- What it does not assure
- It is not a government mark. Scope details (processing aids, shared lines) follow the current V-Label standard, not a national vegan law.
- Traces / shared lines
Trace exclusion is not a simple on-pack promise
Cross-contact rules are set in the private standard. Read the current V-Label criteria; do not assume allergen-style trace exclusion.
