Kosher Certified

Order Kosher certified ethanol, hydrogen peroxide, glycols and food ingredients online, with the certification right in the product name.

You need chemicals your kosher certifier will approve, and you'd rather not burn a week chasing paperwork to prove it. That's what this page is for. Every listing in this Kosher certified chemicals collection shows its certification in the product name, so you can see what you're buying before it hits your cart. Look for ethanol in 140, 190 and 200 proof, both undenatured and denatured. Hydrogen peroxide, propylene glycol and PEG 400 are here too, along with citric acid, phosphoric acid, potassium sorbate, caffeine, MCT oil, polysorbate 80 and activated carbon. Sizes start at a pint and climb to 55 gallon drums and 275 gallon totes. Prices show up on every listing, so you won't need a quote just to learn what something costs. Autoship is available on nearly every listing, which means a repeat order can run on its own schedule. Bakers, supplement brands, extract makers and cosmetic formulators all shop here for the same reason: find the right certified chemical fast and get back to work.

Here's the part that trips people up. Kosher certification isn't a purity grade. It tells you a rabbinic agency has reviewed how a chemical is sourced, made and handled. Lab Alley's certification is supervised by OV Kosher through the Vaad Hoeir of St. Louis, and it covers select products, so the product name is your guide. Many listings also carry Halal certification, and plenty pair Kosher with USP, FCC or Food Grade standards when the chemical is headed for food or supplements. Certification documents, Safety Data Sheets and lot Certificates of Analysis are online, so your quality team can pull them without a phone call. One heads up before checkout. SDA in 5 gallons or more needs your TTB permit, and a few chemicals ship only to business, school or lab addresses. The FAQ below covers both. And if you aren't sure which listing fits, start with the grade in the name. USP/FCC and Food Grade listings are for food and supplements. Denatured and SDA listings are for cleaning and solvent work.

About Kosher Certified

Kosher certification is a process label, not a measurement. It means a rabbinic agency has looked at the ingredients, the production steps and the equipment behind a chemical and found nothing that breaks Jewish dietary law. It says nothing about strength or purity. For that, read the rest of the product name. A number like 200 proof or 34%, a grade like USP/FCC or Food Grade, and the lot Certificate of Analysis tell you what's actually in the bottle.

The chemicals themselves behave the way they always do. Ethanol and denatured alcohol are flammable and evaporate fast. Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizer, and it loses strength as it ages. Phosphoric acid at 85% is corrosive. Caffeine, potassium sorbate and activated carbon arrive as solids that you'll weigh out by the pound or the kilo. A Kosher label doesn't change any of that, so read the Safety Data Sheet before you store or handle anything.


COMMON APPLICATIONS

Most buyers land here because a kosher label on their own product depends on what goes into it. Kosher certification looks at every chemical and processing aid a product touches, so your inputs matter. Here's where these chemicals usually go to work.

  • Extracts and flavors. Food Grade Ethanol and the USP/FCC undenatured ethanol carry Kosher certification for extracts that end up in food or drinks.

  • Beverage and food formulas. Phosphoric acid acidifies soft drinks, potassium sorbate helps keep mold and yeast out, caffeine goes into energy drinks, and polysorbate 80 blends oils and flavors into water based mixes.

  • Sanitizing and bleaching. Hydrogen peroxide 34% in Food Grade is used for antimicrobial treatment and bleaching.

  • Purification. Food Grade activated carbon powder pulls off tastes, color and odor out of a batch.

  • Supplements, cosmetics and personal care. PEG 400, propylene glycol and MCT oil turn up in formulas where the finished product needs a kosher compliant ingredient list.


GRADES EXPLAINED

Lab Alley lists Kosher Certified under Shop by Grade, but it works differently from USP, FCC or ACS. Those grades measure the purity of the finished chemical. Kosher certification looks at the whole path that got the chemical there. A product can be both, and when a chemical is headed for food or supplements, that's the combination to look for.

Here's how that plays out in the product names. Ethanol 200 Proof (100%) Undenatured Alcohol, USP/FCC Food Grade, Kosher, Halal is certified on process and meets USP/FCC purity standards. Hydrogen Peroxide 34% Food Grade is named Food Grade rather than FCC, so check the lot Certificate of Analysis against your own spec. Denatured Ethanol 200 Proof and SDA 40B Ethanol 200 Proof are Kosher certified too, but denatured alcohol isn't for drinking or eating. Those fit cleaning, solvent and extraction jobs where the ethanol doesn't end up in the product.

Kosher is also separate from Halal and from kosher for Passover. Many listings carry both Kosher and Halal. Kosher for Passover is a stricter standard, and this page doesn't list a Passover designation, so ask us before you order if you need it. For a plain language look at how Lab Alley's grades compare, read Lab or Food Grade? Here's What You Need to Know.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Kosher certified and food grade chemicals?
Food grade, FCC and USP describe purity. They tell you the chemical meets a published standard for what's in it. Kosher certification describes the process, meaning a rabbinic agency has reviewed how the chemical is sourced, made and handled. Neither one replaces the other. If your chemical ends up in food, look for both in the product name, such as Ethanol 200 Proof Undenatured Alcohol, USP/FCC Food Grade, Kosher, Halal.
What do 200 proof and 190 proof mean on Kosher certified ethanol?
Proof is double the alcohol percentage by volume. So 200 proof is 100% ethanol, 190 proof is 95% with about 5% water, and 140 proof is 70%. Pick 200 proof for water sensitive work and 190 proof for most extraction and flavor jobs. Other chemicals on this page, like hydrogen peroxide, use plain percentages. Confirm the exact strength on the product page and on the lot Certificate of Analysis.
Do I need a TTB permit to buy Kosher certified ethanol?
It depends on the product. If you buy SDA, such as SDA 40B, in 5 gallons or more, Lab Alley requires your TTB permit showing how much you're allowed to buy each year. Email it to customercare@laballey.com with your order number. Other ethanol listings can carry their own notes, so read the product page before checkout. Not sure which applies to you? Call 512.668.9918 before you order.
Which products are Kosher certified, and who certifies them?
Kosher certification covers select Lab Alley products, and the word Kosher appears in the product name when it applies. The certification is supervised by OV Kosher through the Vaad Hoeir of St. Louis. If a product name doesn't say Kosher, it isn't certified. You can download the certificate from the Certifications page for your records or your auditor.
Can Kosher certified chemicals ship to a residential address?
Some can't. Certain chemicals ship only to businesses, schools and universities, or laboratories, and Lab Alley removes those items from an order headed to a residential address. Read the shipping notices on the product page before you check out. If you're unsure whether your address qualifies, call 512.668.9918 first so your order doesn't get trimmed after you've paid.
Which Kosher certified product should I use for extraction, food or cleaning?
Match the product to where it ends up. For extracts, flavors and anything you'll eat or drink, choose a food grade listing such as Food Grade Ethanol, 200 Proof. For cleaning and solvent work, Denatured Ethanol 200 Proof is the practical pick, but it isn't for consumption. For sanitizing and bleaching, look at hydrogen peroxide 34% Food Grade. Check the lot Certificate of Analysis against your spec either way.
How is Kosher certified different from Halal certified?
They're separate certifications built on different religious dietary laws. Kosher follows Jewish dietary law and is verified by a rabbinic agency. Halal follows Islamic law. Many Lab Alley listings carry both, and the product name tells you which apply. If your customers need only one, browse the Halal Certified page too. If they need both, look for both words in the name.
Can I buy Kosher certified chemicals in drums or totes?
Yes. Many listings come in 55 gallon drums, and some come in 270 or 275 gallon totes. Sizes vary by chemical, so check the size menu on each listing. For volume pricing, a standing order or custom packaging, request a quote or start at Bulk & Custom Chemicals. Autoship is available on many listings for repeat orders.
Is Lab Alley's Kosher certification also kosher for Passover?
Kosher for Passover is a separate, stricter standard that also rules out chametz, which includes certain grains. This page lists standard Kosher certification and doesn't show a Passover designation. If you need kosher for Passover, call 512.668.9918 or email customercare@laballey.com before you order. Our guide on kosher versus kosher for Passover explains the difference.
Can I get the certificate and a COA for my auditor?
Yes. The Kosher certificate is available to download on the Certifications page. Safety Data Sheets and lot Certificates of Analysis are online, so you can pull them before you buy or when an audit comes up. If your auditor wants something specific, like origin details for a source material, email customercare@laballey.com and customer care can help.
