Domestic vaccine wins HALAL certification, joining the fight against COVID-19

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, guarding against the pandemic has become a norm worldwide, and the development of COVID-19 vaccines became our top choice in fighting the pandemic. As is well known, China has achieved remarkable results in both fighting the pandemic and vaccine development, and the COVID-19 vaccine has become an important bond in China''s diplomacy in the post-pandemic era, opening a new era of "vaccine diplomacy"! Currently China''s COVID-19 vaccine has been exported to more than 40 countries, with leaders of many countries taking the lead in getting vaccinated!

Even more noteworthy, through SINOQUAL''s repeated communication and efforts with international Halal certification bodies and relevant experts, the COVID-19 vaccine produced in China also successfully passed HALAL certification and was exported to Pakistan, helping more people in overseas countries jointly resist COVID-19.

The initial test report results of the domestic COVID-19 vaccine were satisfactory, and the relevant data successfully passed the testing of the international HALAL certification body. However, because vaccine ingredients generally contain blood products and animal cells, and Halal certification cannot in principle certify products containing such ingredients, the bovine serum and monkey cell components in the COVID-19 vaccine became the key difficulties of this certification.

To this end, SINOQUAL''s certifiers and the HALAL certification body''s auditors communicated many times, and repeatedly confirmed the test data with relevant international experts. On the premise of strictly observing Halal certification principles, and considering the special nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and the health of all humanity, after half a year SINOQUAL finally successfully obtained HALAL certification for the domestic COVID-19 vaccine!

Fighting the pandemic, SINOQUAL has always been in action! To deliver pandemic-prevention and relief products to more countries, SINOQUAL set up a green online audit channel for the Halal/Kosher certification of pandemic-prevention products such as masks, protective suits, disinfectant, and disinfecting wipes as early as early 2020, and even set an industry record of successfully obtaining HALAL certification for an enterprise in three days!

In the future, SINOQUAL will continue to uphold the "three-dedications" service philosophy of "professional, focused, dedicated", serving domestic enterprises with an international perspective, committed to solving all kinds of certification problems enterprises encounter in exporting, and helping enterprises expand more paths to future success!
