Our Certifications & Standards
Five international certifications verifying our sustainability, ethical practices, and quality management. Everything your brand needs for ESG compliance and retail requirements.
Why Our Certifications Matter for Your Brand
Certifications are not just badges — they're third-party verified proof that your supply chain meets the world's highest standards.
ESG & Sustainability Reporting
Our GRS and FSC certifications directly support your brand's ESG goals, investor reporting, and substantiated sustainability claims.
Retail & Marketplace Access
Major retailers increasingly require supplier certifications. Our documentation keeps your listings compliant with Amazon, SEPHORA, Whole Foods, and EU marketplaces.
EU & US Import Compliance
BRCGS and BSCI satisfy EU supply chain due diligence requirements. ISO 9001 meets US CPSC quality documentation standards.
Marketing Credibility
Third-party verified certifications let you make substantiated eco-claims — protecting you from greenwashing accusations and building consumer trust.
Global Recycled Standard (GRS 4.0)
Issued by: Intertek
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is an international, voluntary, full product standard that sets requirements for third-party certification of recycled content, chain of custody, social and environmental practices, and chemical restrictions.
Our GRS 4.0 certification — verified by Intertek — confirms that our cellulose acetate products meet the highest standards for sustainable material sourcing and responsible production throughout the supply chain.
What GRS 4.0 covers:
- Verified recycled and sustainable content percentage
- Chain of custody from raw material to finished product
- Social and environmental processing requirements
- Restricted substances and chemical safety
Full certificate available upon request for your compliance documentation.
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
Scope: Bamboo and Wood Products
The FSC certification is the world's most respected standard for responsible forest management. Our FSC chain-of-custody certification ensures that all bamboo and wood used in our products originates from responsibly managed forests and certified plantations.
This means the bamboo and wood in your wooden combs, bamboo brushes, or wooden clips can be traced from the forest floor to your customer's hands, with documentation available for your sustainability verification.
What FSC guarantees:
- Timber and bamboo from certified, sustainably managed sources
- No illegal logging or deforestation involvement
- Biodiversity protection and ecosystem conservation
- Fair treatment of forest workers and local communities
We can provide FSC-certified eco-friendly packaging for your products — kraft boxes, paper pouches, and other packaging made with FSC-certified paper stock.
Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI)

BSCI is an industry-driven initiative designed to improve working conditions throughout global supply chains. Our factory is audited annually by TÜV Rheinland — one of the world's most trusted testing and certification organizations.
For buyers in the EU and UK, BSCI compliance is increasingly a baseline requirement. Our audit results are available to share directly with your procurement or CSR team.
BSCI audit covers:
- Fair wages — at or above local legal minimums
