Are you sure that your oats are truly gluten free? Do know for a fact that they contain less than 10ppm of gluten to provide a safety buffer below the 20ppm gluten rule from the FDA? OatPure™ Gluten Free Oats can help eliminate the risk of debilitating lawsuits, the risk of harm to your brand; and most importantly, the risk of customer illness or worse.
Glanbia’s OatPure™ shredded oats, jumbo oat flakes, steel cut oats and quick cook oats, are completely gluten free at less than 10ppm gluten. Plus, their OatSecure™ process delivers total gluten-free control at every step of production, from seed selection to planting, growing, monitoring, harvest, transport and storage. This stringent 14-step OatSecure™ supply chain process is guaranteed to consistently deliver oats that are less than 10ppm gluten.
Later, these Irish oats undergo processing at Glanbia’s ultra-modern, state-of-the-art Buhler-equipped Oat Mill in Portlaoise Ireland, one of the most hygienic and technologically advanced facilities of its kind in the world. Here, the oats are milled in accordance with BRC, a standard recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative. The oats are further rendered safe by a validated 4.6 log heat treatment process that eliminates pathogens and also deactivates lipases to reduce oxidation and extend shelf life to 18 months.
In order to validate their OatSecure™ process, Glanbia has developed a sampling and analysis program which provides confidence levels of greater than 99% that every batch of OatPure is guaranteed to be less than 10ppm gluten. These robust programs have received further validation by an independent statistician, and every tote that’s produced has an individual Certificate of Analysis from an independent laboratory.
