Halal Check from Home: Feel Confident, Stay Assured

Have you ever wondered how many everyday items in your home—from the kitchen to the bathroom to the bedroom—are truly halal and safe?

From hand soap, toothpaste, facial moisturizer, to the snacks in your fridge—everything may seem normal. But are they all truly halal?

Today, the halal lifestyle is expanding. It’s no longer just about avoiding pork or alcohol—it’s about living clean, healthy, and in accordance with Islamic principles.

To make sure of that? We need to do a Halal Check.

That’s why SUCOFINDO is here—not just for large industries, but to ensure the safety of the products that reach your home. Because when something is already verified, that’s when peace of mind begins.

Halal Is More Than Just a Label

Halal isn’t only about meat. Many of the products in our homes come into contact with elements of halal living:

Kitchen: Cooking oil, instant seasonings, flavor enhancers, sauces, frozen food
Bathroom: Soap, shampoo, toothpaste, perfume
Bedroom: Night cream, lotion, lip balm, aromatherapy products
Medicine cabinet: Vitamins, herbal supplements, cough syrup

These products may contain animal derivatives, alcohol, enzymes, or risk cross-contamination—making them questionable from a halal perspective.

SUCOFINDO and Halal Check: Protecting Your Home from the Inside Out

SUCOFINDO is a government-registered Halal Inspection Agency (LPH) under BPJPH (Indonesia Halal Product Assurance Agency). Its role is to perform comprehensive Halal Checks—from raw materials and production processes to packaging and distribution—ensuring products arrive in your home in a halal and hygienic condition.

Through a national network of labs and certified halal auditors, SUCOFINDO inspects every aspect of products—scientifically and in accordance with Islamic principles.

In other words, SUCOFINDO is closer than you think. Even in your bedroom.

Because when you know a product is verified, you sleep better.
When it’s certified, it’s comfortable.

How Halal Check Works

Halal Check isn’t just comparing ingredients. It’s a thorough process of audit, traceability, and scientific testing covering:

Raw Materials

  • Are they of animal origin?

  • If so, were the animals slaughtered according to Islamic law?

  • Are synthetic materials alcohol-free?

Laboratory Testing

  • SUCOFINDO tests for pork DNA, alcohol content, and chemical ingredients, especially in cosmetics and supplements.

Production Process

  • Is the facility clean and free from najis (impure substances)?

  • Are tools shared with non-halal products?

Packaging and Distribution

  • Does the packaging prevent cross-contamination during storage and delivery?

Everyday Household Items That Need Halal Check

Let’s go room by room to discover how Halal Check improves everyday comfort and peace of mind:

1. Living Room

  • Snacks & beverages: Imported products may contain gelatin, emulsifiers, or flavorings from non-halal sources.

  • Essential oils & diffusers: Many aromatherapy products use alcohol as a solvent.

2. Kitchen

  • Instant sauces & seasonings: Soy sauce, bottled chili sauce, cheese powder, bouillon—complex ingredients require testing.

  • Frozen foods: Nuggets, sausages, and meatballs require production audits and ingredient verification.

3. Bathroom

  • Soap, shampoo, toothpaste: Personal care products may contain animal-derived glycerin or fragrance bases.

  • Cosmetics and skincare: Night cream, serum, lip balm often contain collagen, lanolin, or pigments of uncertain origin.

4. Bedroom

  • Herbal sleep aids, supplements, aromatherapy: Natural wellness products also require halal testing due to botanical extracts and alcohol-based solvents.
