Our Journey
At United Allergy Partners, we believe everyone deserves to experience the world without fear or limitation. Our mission is to redefine safety and inclusivity in travel, hospitality, and shared spaces by setting a global benchmark for allergy-aware standards. Through rigorous evaluation, certification, and education, we help hotels, transportation providers, campuses, venues, and organizations of every kind create environments where guests feel protected, welcomed, and cared for.
The UAP 6-Star Standard™ is more than a certification — it’s a promise. A promise that every detail, from preparation to personalization, has been thoughtfully designed to deliver safety, confidence, and peace of mind. Wherever you see the UAP seal, you can trust that inclusion isn’t an afterthought — it’s built into the experience from the start.
Our values
At United Allergy Partners, our work is guided by principles that put people first and set a new global standard for safety and inclusion. These values shape every certification, partnership, and guest experience we help create.
