What is a PETA certificate?

As part of their mission to spread awareness, PETA issues a certificate of the same name to individual companies whose products are proven to contain no animal ingredients and have not been tested on animals.

For PETA it’s all about visibility and supporting manufacturers that are ‘animal-friendly’. It is a certification based on the trust that companies will comply with the conditions set out by PETA.
