Accreditation
FairWild certification is a third-party audited system, whereby audit and certification against the FairWild Standard is conducted by suitably qualified control bodies (CBs).
Product certification is based on EN ISO/IEC 17065:2012, addressing the institutional requirements to be fulfilled by a CB certifying products, processes and services. Specific additional requirements have also been defined to ensure that the FairWild certification programme is managed competently and in an impartial and transparent manner. CBs interested in becoming approved as a FairWild Control Body should refer to the Standard Operational Procedures (SOP) (Version 5/2023) and get in touch for further information.and get in touch for further information.
