Seal of approval
A quality label for your products
The Swiss Vitamin Institute’s seal of approval program is a quality control program offered by the SVI to companies to certify either the vitamin content or stability of specific products (ranging from food, vitamin supplements, pharmaceuticals to cosmetics) or vitamin analytical methods. It is approved by the SVI Board Members only for high-quality products.
ENHANCE YOUR PRODUCTS
TRUST BENEFIT
Our seal ensures that the product’s vitamin content was reviewed, analysed and confirmed by an independent official Swiss accredited control laboratory using the highest standard of quality control for vitamins.
MARKETING BENEFIT
The SVI seal of approval can be marketed by the companies on packaging and website as well as advertisement media.

Genuine SVI certification can be verified either directly on a search button on the SVI website or through QR codes on products packaging with a smartphone-readable secure QR code printed that will link shoppers to the SVI website for more information – shoppers will be able to access the status of the product certification and engage with either SVI through a feedback button or the product provider directly.

Other aspects such as health claims in line with human and animal health or nutrition as well as acceptable cosmetic products claims are also considered.
