Certification Mark
LVRC Certification Mark
Awarded to pet products that pass LVRC's veterinary clinical-application studies (safety, efficacy, palatability). Sponsors use the mark to visually signal third-party validation of product credibility.
What the mark certifies
The LVRC mark is granted only to products that meet defined thresholds across veterinary-designed clinical-application studies, conducted under in-house IACUC review with quantitative endpoints for safety, efficacy, and palatability. It is not a pharmaceutical (MFDS) authorization — it is a voluntary quality certification for pet food, treats, supplements, and topical product categories.

Trust
Studies are run on KNU College of Veterinary Medicine's clinical infrastructure and collaborative network.
