Supply Chain Certification in the Food and Feed Sector
Building on the REDcert EU system, REDcert2 covers additional sustainability levels for the food and feed industry, applicable to biomass cultivation and collection, trade and processing.
REDcert2 has been awarded the highest SAI benchmark rating of ‘Gold’ at the agricultural level in numerous European countries as part of the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative (SAI) benchmarking process and has achieved the ‘Silver’ level in many other countries.
If your company is already REDcert-EU certified, you only need to have the specific REDcert2 requirements checked. With little effort, you can open up new markets for your company and increase your competitiveness immensely.
Advantages of a REDcert2 certification
Universally applicable
REDcert2 can be applied at all stages of the value chain – from the farmer to the retailer of the final products.
SAI-Benchmarking
REDcert2-certified products can achieve different levels of the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative (SAI) by including additional optional test points.
Sustainability Claims
Companies with certified on-product claims credibly demonstrate the sustainability of their food and feed products.
How does a combination of REDcert2 and other certification systems work?
If your company is already REDcert-EU certified, you only need to have the specific REDcert2 requirements checked. With little effort, you can open up new markets for your company and greatly increase your competitiveness.

Self-declaration: Producers must provide a signed declaration confirming that the biomass or waste/residual materials comply with the REDcert2 sustainability criteria.
Delivery documentation: Each delivery must be clearly labelled (including certificate number) and weighed or measured to determine the quantity.
Mass balance: A substrate-specific mass balance is required for each location, which allows physical mixing of quantities but records sustainability information separately.
If you decide to work with GUTcert, an on-site audit will be conducted to assess compliance with the requirements of the REDcert2-system. Once GUTcert has successfully reviewed the audit documents, you will receive a certificate proving compliance with the REDcert sustainability criteria. The certificate is valid for one year and is renewed before expiry by means of a recertification audit.
If your company is already ISCC-EU certified, you only need to have the specific PLUS requirements and those of the optionally selected modules audited. With little effort, you can open up many new markets for your company and greatly increase your competitiveness.
