Sustainability certification for companies

CSE Certified Sustainable Economics – the company certification for holistic sustainability
CSE is a comprehensive certification that evaluates and recognizes the sustainability of your entire company. It covers various aspects, from environmental protection and working conditions to ethical business practices. With the CSE seal, you can credibly communicate your commitment to sustainability to the outside world and set yourself apart from less sustainable competitors. The certification is available for various industries and is continuously developed to reflect current sustainability standards.

Product certifications
NCS Natural Cosmetics Standard – the product certification for natural cosmetics
The NCS standard stands for high-quality natural cosmetics that meet strict quality and sustainability criteria. NCS-certified products consist of natural ingredients, preferably of organic quality, and do not contain synthetic additives, genetic engineering or animal testing. The certification offers manufacturers the opportunity to credibly advertise their natural cosmetic products and position themselves in the growing market for natural body care. Consumers benefit from the certainty that they are choosing a product that is kind to both their skin and the environment.
NCP Nature Care Product – the product certification for organic non-food products
The NCP seal recognizes environmentally friendly non-food products that are made from natural, preferably organic raw materials. It covers a wide range of products such as detergents and cleaning agents, hygiene products and toys. The certification guarantees that the products meet strict ecological criteria and are free from harmful ingredients such as microplastics or chemicals of concern. With NCP-certified products, you can offer consumers reliable and transparent guidance for sustainable purchasing decisions.
NT NATURE THANX – the product certification for therapy-accompanying natural cosmetics
NATURE THANX closes the gap between conventional natural cosmetics and effective care products. The certification allows the limited use of selected nature-identical active ingredients to achieve therapy-supporting effects, while at the same time setting the highest standards in terms of naturalness and environmental compatibility. NATURE THANX products are ideal for consumers who value natural ingredients but do not want to forego the effectiveness of therapy-supporting care. The certification also promotes the research and development of natural alternatives to synthetic active ingredients.
