REAL appoints TÜV AUSTRIA Belgium as a new CMCS Certification Body

02.01.2024

TÜV AUSTRIA Belgium has been appointed as a new certification body under Renewable Energy Assurance Ltd (REAL)’s Compostable Materials Certification Scheme (CMCS).

TUV AUSTRIA is tasked with the responsibility of conducting certification assessments for CMCS, which entails assessing products and test results against scheme documents to ensure the products comply with certification requirements.

The products certified under CMCS are assessed by the certification body according to strict criteria, requirements, and procedures. Once the product has been certified, a trademark registered certification mark is issued by REAL (either ‘REAL Home Compostable’ or ‘REAL Industrially Compostable’), marks show the product is suitable for home and/or commercial composting.

Justyna Staff, Schemes Director at REAL said:

Congratulations to TÜV AUSTRIA who have been appointed as a new certification body under CMCS. TÜV AUSTRIA brings a wealth of experience to CMCS to really assist with the certification of compostable materials in accordance with a high standard of testing and assessment methods. This augurs well for REAL, and the compostables producer – we are very happy to have another certification body on board as it offers producers a choice of two different organisations. We are looking forward to working with TÜV AUSTRIA, to continue operating a robust and efficient certification scheme.

Philippe Dewolfs, Business Unit Manager of TÜV AUSTRIA said:

Active since 1995 in the field of compostable product certification, we are delighted to be involved in the development of these products in the UK. We’re convinced that many of our more than 1500 customers will be delighted to upgrade their existing certifications to obtain a CMCS certificate for the UK market, whether for industrial or home composting.”
