EKO

Organic certification

The word “organic” is defined by law.

Skal is the legal holder of the EKO Quality symbol. This symbol stands for organic production certified by Skal.

EKO The symbol denotes that the product has reached the standards set down by Skal and the EU-regulations for organic production.

Skal surveys the organic production by means of inspection and certification. Inspections consist of visits to farms, processing and importing units, but also examination of soil, crop or tissue samples. When the production process fully meets the requirements, certification can take place. In that case Skal issues a certificate as document of support.

Skal is an inspection body for the organic production and carries out this task by means of inspection, finally leading towards certification.
