Certification of Feed Production

Conducting certification of organic Feeds Production is an important direction of our main activities, in which we have an extensive experience.

Organic feed refers to any substance or product, including additives (processed, partially processed, or unprocessed), obtained through organic production and intended for animal feeding in accordance with the requirements of standards and regulations.

We have a proven track record in certifying feed production under international and private standards, such as the EU Organic Regulation, Canada Organic Standard (COR), Bio Suisse (Switzerland), and Naturland (Germany), both in Ukraine and beyond.

The range of processed organic feeds that we certify often includes oilseed meals, bran, and grain meals. These products are integral to the manufacturing process of enterprises involved in food production.

Organic Standard provides a comprehensive range of services that encompass inspections and certification based on various standards and ongoing support for the Operator during the entire certification process. We place great importance on the expertise of our specialists and continuously enhance their skills and qualifications. As a result, this approach allows us to deliver high-quality service to our clients.
