GRS certification verifies the recycled content in a product and the supply chain's compliance with environmental and social standards.
To obtain GRS certification, you typically need to work with an accredited certification body. They will assess your product's recycled content, traceability, social and environmental practices, and compliance with GRS requirements.
Prepare documentation showing your product's recycled content, supply chain information, and compliance with GRS criteria.
Organic Content Standard (OCS)
OCS certification verifies the organic content in products, ensuring they meet specific environmental and social criteria.
Similar to GRS, you'll need to engage with an accredited certification body for OCS certification.
Provide documentation demonstrating your product's organic content, including details about raw materials, processing methods, and compliance with OCS standards.
Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)
GOTS certification is a comprehensive standard for organic textiles, covering both environmental and social aspects of production.
To achieve GOTS certification, work with a certification body authorized by GOTS. They will assess your entire production process, from raw material sourcing to labeling and packaging, against GOTS criteria.
Provide evidence of organic fiber content, compliance with environmental criteria (e.g., restricted substances), and adherence to social criteria (e.g., fair wages, safe working conditions).
Recycled Claim Standard (RCS)
RCS certification verifies the recycled content in products and ensures transparency in material sourcing and processing.
Like other certifications, seek out an accredited certification body for RCS certification.
Submit documentation proving the recycled content of your product, supply chain traceability, and compliance with RCS requirements.
ISO (International Organization for Standardization):
ISO offers various standards applicable to different industries and aspects of business operations (e.g., quality management, environmental management, social responsibility).
Determine which ISO standard(s) are relevant to your business or product.
Implement the necessary processes and systems to meet the requirements of the chosen ISO standard(s).
Engage a certification body accredited for ISO standards assessment to undergo an audit of your processes and systems.
Upon successful audit, you'll receive ISO certification.
