Brands and retailers increasingly ask suppliers to prove the origin and content of materials. Chain-of-custody and product standards let you make verified claims about organic, recycled or responsibly sourced products.
We support organisations working toward standards such as the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), Organic Content Standard (OCS), Global Recycled Standard (GRS), Recycled Claim Standard (RCS), Responsible Down Standard (RDS), Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), Better Cotton (BCI) and FSC chain of custody.
We explain what each standard requires, help you prepare traceability and records, and audit or coordinate the audit so you are ready for certification.
What you receive
- Standard selection and scope advice
- Traceability and records readiness review
- On-site audit and report
- Corrective action follow-up
- Transaction-certificate and labelling guidance
Frequently asked questions
Which standard should I choose?
It depends on your buyer and product: organic content, recycled content, animal welfare or forestry. Contact us with your buyer's requirement and we will advise.
Do I need records before the audit?
Yes. Traceability records for inputs, production and sales are central to chain-of-custody standards.
