To the award winners

The German Federal Award of Honour (Bundesehrenpreis) is the highest distinction of the German Spirits producer. The award winners had previously achieved the best overall results in the DLG quality test. 

To the award winners

 

Numerous producers have had their products tested voluntarily by the DLG experts for many years. To promote this striving for quality, the DLG presents the manufacturer award "DLG Award for Constant Product Quality". This award for product quality tested over many years in the DLG quality tests is presented annually by the DLG to food manufacturers.

To the award winners

Products that have successfully participated in the DLG quality tests for at least 5 consecutive years can apply for the "DLG Classic". The reference year is the first successful award year. Advertising with the marks is only permitted in direct spatial connection with the naming of the award-winning product(s). Use of the mark is automatically extended by successful annual participation in the respective DLG quality test.

Foods that have received a DLG award can additionally be tested for special properties or product promises. With "DLG Claims", food producers can benefit even more from the know-how of DLG experts and the high profile of the quality awards.
