What is certification?
Certification means that the certification body to prove products, services, management system in line with relevant technical specifications, the relevant technical specifications of the mandatory requirements or standards of conformity assessment activities.
What is accreditation?
Accreditation refers to the accreditation of accreditation bodies, inspection bodies, laboratories and personnel engaged in accreditation activities such as accreditation, accreditation and other activities to be recognized.
What are the common certifications?
Certification is usually divided into products, services and management system certification. We are more familiar with the CCC certification is mandatory product certification. The system certification includes: ISO9001 standards as the basis to carry out the quality management system certification; to ISO14001 standards based on environmental management system certification carried out to GB / T28001 standards based on occupational health and safety management system certification; food safety management system certification (HACCP) certification. As well as sports venues to service marks based on the development of sports services certification.
What is a mandatory product certification?
Compulsory product certification, also known as CCC certification, is a product evaluation system implemented by the Chinese government to protect the personal health and safety of the consumers, protect the environment and protect the national security. It requires the products to meet the national standards and Relevant technical specifications. Mandatory product certification, through the development of mandatory product certification of product catalogs and mandatory product certification implementation of the rules, included in the "directory" in the implementation of mandatory product testing and factory inspection. Products listed in the Catalog of Compulsory Product Certification shall not be issued, sold, imported or used in other business activities unless they have obtained the certification certificates issued by the designated certification body and have not applied the certification mark in accordance with the regulations.
Classification of management system certification
Management system certification is divided into quality management system, environmental management system, occupational health and safety management system, measurement and management system, and good agricultural practices (GAP), Good Practice (GMP) Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point System (HACCP).
Classification of product certification
Product certification is divided into voluntary product certification and compulsory product certification two categories.

The voluntary product certification has recently: organic food (agricultural products), green food (agricultural products), pollution-free food (agricultural products), energy-saving products, water-saving products, environmentally friendly products, renewable resources products and water-saving, energy-saving products.
Energy management system certification
Energy management system is from the whole process of the system, follow the principles of system management, through the implementation of a complete set of standards and norms in the organization to establish a complete and effective, document-based energy management system, focusing on the establishment and implementation process control Energy audits, energy efficiency benchmarking, internal auditing, energy measurement and measurement of organizational energy, organizational energy balance statistics, management review, self-evaluation, energy-saving technological transformation, energy efficiency improvement, and so on. , Energy efficiency assessment and other measures to continuously improve the effectiveness of the continuous improvement of energy management system to achieve energy management policies and commitments and to achieve the desired energy consumption or the use of purpose
Food safety management system certification
Food safety management system in English referred to as "ISO22000: 2005". ISO 22000: 2005 expresses common requirements in food safety management, rather than specific requirements for any type of organization in the food chain. This standard applies to all organizations in the food chain who wish to establish food safety systems, irrespective of their size, type and the products they provide. It is suitable for agricultural products manufacturers, animal feed manufacturers, food manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers. It also applies to food-related equipment suppliers, logistics providers, packaging material suppliers, agrochemicals and food additive suppliers, food service providers and restaurants.
ISO 22000: 2005 adopted the ISO9000 standard architecture, the HACCP principle as a method applied to the entire system; clear hazard analysis as a safe food to achieve the core of planning, and the International Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) prepared by the preparatory steps of product characteristics , The intended use, the flow chart, the processing steps and the control measures and the communication as the input of the hazard analysis and its updating; and the dynamic and balanced combination of the HACCP plan and its prerequisite - premise program. This standard can be integrated with other management standards, such as quality management system standards and environmental management system standards.
Pollution - free agricultural products certification
Pollution-free agricultural products refers to the origin of the environment, the production process and product quality in line with relevant national standards and regulatory requirements, certified to obtain certification and allow the use of pollution-free agricultural products, raw or unprocessed edible agricultural products. Currently pollution-free agricultural products have a variety of signs, such as affixed to the pollution-free agricultural products or product packaging on the scrape-off paper logo, mainly used in fresh categories and the need for bundling of pollution-free agricultural products on the lock, As well as expose the type of paper logo, plastic logo.
Green food certification
Green food certification refers to the principle of sustainable development, in accordance with the specific mode of production, the specialized agencies that permit the use of green food signs, pollution-free safety, quality, nutrition food. Non-polluting, safe, high-quality, nutrition is the characteristics of green food. The inherent quality of products includes two aspects: First, the intrinsic quality, and the second is the nutritional value and health and safety indicators. The scope of certification for green food products includes primary products, primary processed products and deep processed products according to the product grade. The products include agricultural and forestry products and processed products, livestock and poultry, aquatic products, beverages and other products.
Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) certification
Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) is a set of rules for the production of primary agricultural products. It strengthens the management of agricultural production and management, realizes the whole process control of planting and breeding, and controls the quality and safety of agricultural products from the source. In this case,
China's Good Agricultural Practice (ChinaGAP) is divided into two levels: primary certification and secondary certification. Level 1 certification in line with the requirements of the Global Good Agricultural Practice (GLOBALGAP), the National Commission for Certification and Accreditation of GAP approved by the GAP certification issued by the certification body GAP level certificate.
GMP certification mark can be used to scale or narrow, but does not allow deformation, discoloration; in the use of certification mark, the certification mark must be the number of certification certificate number.
Organic product certification
Organic product certification refers to the organic production system, according to organic production requirements and the corresponding standard production and processing, and through a legitimate organic product certification body certification products. Domestic market organic products have been involved in more than 20 varieties of vegetables, tea, rice, grains, fruits, honey, Chinese herbal medicines, aquatic products, livestock and poultry products, more than 500 varieties.
