The principles of Organic Production covered respect for ecosystems and animals, maintenance of biodiversity and conservation of soils, avoidance of synthetic chemical inputs, and ban to use genetically modified organisms.

Organic is a term (also known as Ecological or Biological) that indicates that the food or other agricultural products have been produced and are certified according to an Organic Standard.

Organic Production Standards are mainly formulated as National Regulations, such as the European Union Regulation 2018/848, and the United States of America National Organic Program (NOP-USDA). There are also some private organic standards that “complement” the national ones, such as Bio Suisse (Swiss market) and Krav (Swedish market).

In general, any business directly involved in the production, processing, handling, and trading of an organic product can be certified.

Control Union offers the certification service for the most recognized organic Standards worldwide. With more than 250 organic experts, we are ready to support you to reach your goals.
