Animal welfare WQ

Viñals Soler’s animal welfare certification is managed by IRTA in collaboration with Neiker-Tecnalia, based on the European Welfare Quality project and the European AWIN® project, which developed systems to evaluate and control animal welfare in farms and slaughterhouses.
This evaluation system is based on 4 principles: GOOD FOOD, GOOD ACCOMMODATION, GOOD HEALTH and APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR.
At Viñals Soler we have the whole chain audited, from the farm to the dispatch of our products, because we are aware of the benefits that animal welfare brings, both in terms of quality and production efficiency. In addition to respect for animals from birth to slaughter.
Consumers will be guaranteed information through product labeling with the Animal Welfare (WQ) seal.
