RSPO Certification for Responsible Palm Oil

The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standards provide assurance to ensure palm oil production is environmentally and socially sustainable.

RSPO is a multi-stakeholder initiative with a key objective to promote the growth and use of sustainable palm oil through cooperation within the supply chain.

To achieve this, the RSPO developed the first set of environmental and social Principle and Criteria since 2007, for the production of Certified Sustainable Palm Oil (CSPO) to minimize negative impacts from the palm oil plantations and their supply chains.

Producers can claim that they produce, use and/or sell sustainable palm oil if they are RSPO-certified. BSI is globally accredited to the RSPO scheme by the Accreditation Services International (ASI) for Principles and Criteria (P&C) and Supply Chain Certification Standard worldwide.

RSPO Supply Chain Certification Standard (RSPO SCCS)

The main objective is to demonstrate systems for control of RSPO-certified palm oil products and to prevent the overselling and mixing of palm oil with conventional (or non-sustainable) palm oil products.
