Our certificates
Pure and healthy cat and dog food is Yarrah's primary priority. We are constantly working to optimise our quality and comply with the strictest possible requirements for organic products, animal welfare and food safety. The certificates below provide the proof! Our certificates demonstrate that we meet the most stringent requirements for organic products, animal wellbeing, social and environmental performance and food safety.
Organic certificates
Yarrah pet food as the ‘organic’ quality label. Organic is a protected term; a product must meet certain conditions in order to be labelled ‘organic’. The product and the entire production process must meet strict requirements. For example, no chemical fertilizer or artificial pesticides may be involved anywhere in the production process. In addition, the product must be free of synthetic preservatives, aromas, colorants and flavours. These rules, and many others, were drafted by the European Union.
Certificates for meat
The meat that Yarrah adds to its food has a Better Life label with three stars, the maximum number of stars. The Better Life label is the Dutch Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals’ quality label, aimed at improving the lives of chicken, cows and pigs. Yarrah has been committed to this quality label since 2015 which made it the first pet food brand to adopt it. In addition, all the meat Yarrah uses is manufactured organically.
Certificates for fish
There are quality labels for fish as well. Yarrah uses fish with an MSC quality label, which guarantees sustainably caught fish. This is a conscious choice since MSC fish had a better life than fish that was organically farmed.
Certificates for vega(n)
Our vegan products for dogs are certified by: “The Vegetarian Society”, “The Vegan Society” and EVU (European Vegetarian Union). The products meet the requirements set by these organisations and are 100% vegetarian and vegan.
Planet Score
Our kibble proudly carries the Planet Score label – an independent sustainability score that shows the real impact of products. Yarrah was one of the first pet food brands to join. Why? Because we believe better choices start with better information.
Planet Score measures what really counts: CO₂ emissions, pesticide use, biodiversity and animal welfare. Most of our dry food products receive a Triple A rating – the highest possible score. And yes, we’re proud of that.
We want to prove that sustainable pet food is not just a claim – it’s a measurable reality. No greenwashing. Just progress. Helping you choose better for your pet and the planet.
Every step matters. Will you join us?

Not tested on animals
Our products are not tested on animals. Instead, we ask owners whether their pet can try our new product. If the dogs or cats like the product and if it adds something to our product range, we will take the product to market.
