SKAL biocontrole is the independent organisation responsible for issuing the EU organic certificate in the Netherlands. Their task is to ensure that organic companies comply with the strict European regulations and Dutch organic standards.

How does Skal certification work?

Skal certification is a crucial process for producers and processors who want to sell their products as organic. To become Skal certified, companies must meet the strict requirements and standards set for organic production. This includes avoiding the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers, respecting animal welfare standards and applying sustainable agricultural practices.

Skal Biocontrole regularly inspects certified companies to ensure they comply with the regulations. They check, among other things, the administration, the production processes and take samples for analysis. Only when a company meets all the requirements, it receives the Skal certification and is allowed to place the Skal logo on its products.

Why is Skal certification important?

Skal certification is of great importance to both producers and consumers. For producers, it offers a reliable way to demonstrate that their products meet organic standards. The familiar Skal logo on the packaging gives consumers the certainty that the product is truly organic and has been produced with respect for nature and the environment.

For consumers, Skal certification makes it easier to make conscious choices. They can trust that they are actually buying organic products, free from harmful chemicals and produced with sustainable agricultural practices. In addition, Skal certification contributes to confidence in the organic sector as
