RSPO certification is a reality

RSPO: sustainable palm oil production

The RSPO Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Palm Oil Production (RSPO P&C) are the global guidelines for producing palm oil sustainably. These include standards for palm oil plantations on dealing fairly with employees, smallholders and impacted communities, conserving natural resources and biodiversity, and developing new plantings in responsible ways.
The palm oil supply chain, from the tropics to its use as an ingredient in retail products all over the world, is complex. To preserve the integrity of RSPO palm oil, players along the supply chain wishing to use it have to do so transparently to allow traceability. The transparency and traceability is assured through the RSPO Supply Chain Certification.
