Stages involved in labeling
Understanding the standard regulatory framework
Directive 73/404/CEE of 22/11/73 amended.
Directive 73/405/CEE of 22/11/73 amended.

Getting to know the standard requirements
To order the standard: Please send your application to the Eco-Products department. We remain at your disposal should you have any questions about the standard.
Requesting a personalized annual quotation (free of charge and without commitment)
Please complete and return the Questionnaire for the Pre-Survey, which will be sent to you together with the standard.
Committing to the approach
A contract is drawn up between Ecocert and the applicant. It is renewed by tacit reconduction every year. By signing the contract, the applicant undertakes to submit to the standard requirements and agrees to the audits (2 a year).
Certification audit
The deadline for obtaining an initial appointment is generally three weeks. Ecocert will send you the documents in advance for completion with a view to preparing for the audit.
The elements audited are as follows:
Finished product:
Ingredients used
Processes used
Tensio-active agents
Supplier commitment over the raw materials delivered
Verification of packaging
Inspection of labeling
Manufacturer:
Transport and storage of ingredients and finished products
Hygiene and cleaning of manufacturing and packaging zones
Management of energy, discharges and waste (selective sorting and recycling)
Assessment of the global quality system (traceability) and self-inspection
Processing of your file
Following the audit, the Eco-Products department processes your file and sends you the audit findings together, if possible, with your attestation of conformity.
Attestation of conformity
Attestations of conformity list all the products that are labeled "Ecological Detergent"
