Paleo Ridge, producer of high-quality raw dog food, today announces the business has been RawSAFE certified, becoming a founding accreditee of the new audit specifically designed to ensure the highest possible standards in the raw feeding industry.
Partly owned by the Raw Feeding Veterinary Society (RFVS), the RawSAFE accreditation has been developed to ensure the quality and safety of raw feeding products. The rigorous audit looks specifically at all areas of raw food manufacturing, holding businesses to the highest standard possible. Standards set by RawSAFE are based on those in human food manufacturing.
As one of the first brands to receive RawSAFE certification, Paleo Ridge underwent a thorough audit of its manufacturing processes. Using ethically sourced, organic, human grade ingredients with no artificial additives, Paleo Ridge has consistently prioritised the quality, safety and sustainability of its products.
The RawSAFE accreditation means Paleo Ridge customers and prospective customers can feel confident that the brand is safe for their dogs. The certification will also reassure pet industry professionals, including vets, trainers and breeders, by guaranteeing the high standard of Paleo Ridge food.
Tyler Daly, CEO of Paleo Ridge, said, “We are very proud that Paleo Ridge is officially RawSAFE certified. Our focus is always on the health and wellbeing of dogs and the accreditation is testament to the high quality of our food and manufacturing processes. Manufacturing standards can differ greatly from business to business, it’s very important that there is now a standard which oversees and regulates the manufacture of safe, healthy pet food that consumers can buy with confidence and that Vets can stand behind.
“At Paleo Ridge, we pride ourselves on implementing an industry leading, best practice approach. We go above and beyond in sourcing, welfare, nutritional testing and manufacturing. The new certificate will reassure customers that our products meet the highest possible standards,, improving the reach and reputation of the Paleo Ridge brand as we seek to help dogs nationwide live happy and healthy lives.”
Commenting on the accreditation, RawSAFE Directors said, “Launching the RawSAFE accreditation was a critical decision to guarantee the safety and standards of raw feeding. By focusing on the standards specific to this industry, we developed criteria to protect pets and their guardians as thoroughly as possible. We are delighted to award the certification to Paleo Ridge, a leader in the industry, and hope other raw food manufacturers will be inspired to undergo the audit too.”
