NON-GMO CERTIFICATION
The SGS Non-GMO Supply Chain Standard is designed to assist organizations, irrespective of their type or size, supplying non-genetically modified product. Applicable to both food and feed, the scope could include one part of the supply chain, a few pieces, or the entire supply chain of the production process.
From the seed, through the growing process and harvest, transportation, collection, storing and processing to the market channel, we offer independent certification of the quality management systems. Certification also includes the verification of legal requirements relating to the labeling and traceability of GMOs.
Based on EU regulations concerning non-GMO, including Directive 2001/18/EC and regulations 1829/2003 and
1830/2003, our standard can be applied to all processes in the supply chain:
• Seed supply • Farming • Trading • Processing
As well as services to the supply chain: • Storage • Transport • Sampling and analysis
Critical points of the program include the control of parallel production, product traceability and an effective product recall system.
Certification against this standard gives companies the assurance of independent third-party verification by a globally recognized certification company.
Non-GMO supply chain certification does not replace compliance with national and international regulations.
