|
|
4-1. Organizations that do not need CoC certification could still be required to obtain certification if the CRTPP product is opened later in the supply chain. For example, a wholesaler only trading CRTPP product, and not opening the product before selling it on to final consumers, would not require CoC certification. However, if a restaurant buys CRTPP product from the wholesaler and opens the CRTPP product to prepare meals served in their restaurant which they would like to advertise as PSA certified, both the wholesaler and restaurant would require CoC certification. While organizations may not always know how their products are used later in the supply chain, if the client or PSA is aware that a product will be opened later in the chain, they should not treat the product as being CRTPP and advise the relevant organizations that CoC certification is required.
