Non-ISO certification programmes
None of these are ISO standards. Each has its own scheme owner, its own rules and its own type of issuing body. The word "certificate" does not cover them all — which is why every record is shown together with its class.
Four different things the same word covers:
- Accredited third-party certification
- Scheme owner's certification programme
- Public-authority ecolabel
- Rating or award programme
Certification 10 programmes
Requested by retailers and buyers across the food chain — built on ISO 22000 but a separate scheme from it.
A modular scheme family — you cannot start without knowing which IFS module the buyer wants.
Required by OEMs across the automotive supply chain — built on ISO 9001 but not an ISO standard.
A good agricultural practice programme requested by exporters and retailers at primary production.
An organic textile claim requires every link in the chain to be certified separately.
For every processor and trader that will use an FSC claim on wood, paper or packaging.
For food, cosmetics and chemical businesses that physically handle palm oil or its derivatives.
A voluntary environmental label for defined product and service groups placed on the EU market — licensed by a public authority.
A points-based rating for building and interior projects — it certifies the project, not the company.
An annual award for beaches, marinas and tourism boats — it is not a hotel certificate.
