So fing alles an...
Schnitzer was founded in 1968 by the dentist Dr. Schnitzer, who made the wholefood philosophy accessible to large sections of the population through literature and products. Schnitzer has been offering long-life organic baked goods since 1996, initially exclusively wholefood products. The first expansion took place in 2002: A separate gluten-free organic production facility was put into operation. The second expansion took place in 2014/2015. A new production facility was built and put into operation at the end of 2015. Since then, over 30 different, self-developed gluten-free recipes have been produced there on a total of 7,000 square meters - with IFS Food (Higher Level) certification.

Zertifikate
In spring 2016, Schnitzer was IFS certified and was even able to complete the certification process at a high level. IFS stands for International featured standard and refers to a set of "food, product and service standards".
DZG-LICENSED
The crossed-out ear of corn is the internationally recognized symbol for gluten-free foods.
The Gluten Free symbol is a guarantee of quality. All manufacturers using it must comply with high production standards to ensure the safety of the licensed product. In Germany, monitoring is carried out by the German Celiac Society.
CERTIFIED BY LACON
In order to be allowed to use the organic seal valid in the EU, the company and the products are subjected to special controls. The condition for the control, and thus for the use of the seal, is the compliance with set standards and the linkage with special conditions. The compliance with the criteria is guaranteed by a documentation obligation as well as regular taking and examination of product samples. Compliance with the regulations for all organic products in the EU is monitored by the respective responsible organic inspection body; in the case of additional use of an association seal, support and monitoring is carried out by the respective growers' association. Schnitzer is certified by Lacon according to the EU organic standards.
