有机物含量标准OCS认证
2020-02-01
OCS认证 标准是一个私有标准，标准制定组织是纺织交易协会（Textile Exchange, 简称‘TE’）。组织是纺织交易协会是一个会员制的国际性非盈利组织。该组织的使命是鼓励人们加快参与可持续纺织品价值链的实践活动，并为之创造条件。
OCS认证任何含5-100%有机原料的非食品类产品。如纺织品（纤维产品、纱线、面料、服装等）、化妆品。
有机含量标准OCS认证是一个对有机原料进行跟踪查证，验证终产品中存在的有机原料及数量的标准。该标准提供了一套完整的供应链条监管体系，对有机原料从来源到终产品整个过程进行监管。通过被授权的第三方认证机构对产品中的有机原料含量进行公开、透明、全面一致的独立评估和验证。OCS可以作为企业之间商业贸易工具，确保企业采购的是含有如声称一样含量的有机原料的产品。OCS标准也可以作为面对消费者的声明。
OCS标准审核企业内部及企业之前的产品流程，从原料验证、收获后的加工、制造、包装和标识、仓储、操作、运输，直至最后的商业贸易环节的销售方。所以要求所有企业、从田间收获后的首道加工开始，直至最后的商业贸易（企业对企业的贸易，B2B）环节中的销售方都必须参加认证。
OCS认证标准是目前除GOTS认证之外的另一个被全球广泛公认和接受的有机标准。从标准颁布到现在，已被全球广泛采用来进行有机纺织品的认证。通过OCS认证的有机含量产品可以进入各大主流市场。
有机含量标准，OCS认证。目前有机棉认证体系之一。
有机含量标准(The Organic Content Standard)是由美国非营利组织Textile Exchange推出的有机认证标准，简称:OCS认证。有机含量标准通过跟踪有机原材料的种植从而监管整个有机产业链的一个认证。
Textile Exchange曾表示，OCS将取代现有的OE(Organic Exchange)混纺标准。除此之外，OCS验厂将应用于各种有机种植原料的验证，而不只限于有机棉。
有机物含量标准能够适用于所有含有5％-100％有机原料的非食品产品。能够准确的证实最终产品中的有机原料含量。
简要总结一下OCS认证的对象、审核范围、审核结果
认证对象：用认可的有机原料生产的使用非食品产品。
审核范围：产品质量体系、有机生产布置及规划、有机生产过程风险点控制
审核结果：OCS分为资格证书及销售证书两种。
资格证书有效期为一年，每年监督审核，
销售证书为每一批次产品的有机棉证书
OCS认证能够用于从原料源头追溯至最终产品，且整个过程都有一个可信的第三方组织进行认证。在完全独立评估产品有机含量的过程中，有机含量标准将秉承一贯的透明性和一致性。
Foreward
Textile Exchange is an international, member-supported, non-profit organization that was established in2003 under the original name of Organic Exchange. Textile Exchange operates internationally and is com-mitted to the responsible expansion of both organic cotton and all other sustainable textile value chains.
In 2007 Organic Exchange developed the OE 100 and OE Blended standards to verify the organic cottoncontent claims on products. The standards established a system for tracking and documenting the pur-chase, handling and use of certified organic cotton fiber. Since then there has been a need for a broaderorganic standard that would support content claims for all organic inputs, not just cotton. To meet thisneed, Textile Exchange has developed the Organic Content Standard (OCS), based on the generic chain ofcustody requirements of the Content Claim Standard (CCS).
The CCS and OCS were written by Textile Exchange. The first draft of the CCS was put out for review andcomment by professionals from the certification community. The final drafts of both standards werereviewed and approved by the Outdoor Industry Association Materials Traceability Working Group.

Introduction
The Organic Content Standard (OCS) applies to any non-food product containing 5- 100% organic mate-rial. It verifies the presence and amount of organic material in a final product. It tracks the flow of a rawmaterial from the source to the final product and this process is certified by an accredited third party. Itallows for transparent, consistent and comprehensive independent evaluation and verification of organicmaterial content claims on products. It can be used as a business-to-business tool to give companies themeans to ensure that they are getting what they are paying for and selling.
The Standard does not cover the certification of the raw material itself - that will be verified indepen-dently of the production process certification. It also does not address other inputs, environmentalaspects of processing (such as energy, water or chemical use), any social issues or legal compliance. Thebenefits of this Standard are that organic claims made on final products can be fully backed up throughthird party certification, transparency is increased, and consumer trust is improved. The Industry willhave a clear and uniform process, leading to greater consistency, efficiency and integrity.
Intended users of the OCS are manufacturers, brands and retailers, certification bodies, and organiza-tions supporting organic initiatives. This is a voluntary standard that is not intended to replace the legalor regulatory requirements of any country. It is the responsibility of each operation to demonstrate com-pliance with all applicable laws and regulations related to marketing, labor and business practices.
OCS and CCS
The OCS uses the chain of custody requirements of the Content Claim Standard (CCS), combined withclear requirements for the use of certified organic inputs and rules regarding logo use and labellingclaims. The CCS is a generic chain of custody standard being used for the chain of custody requirementsfor a number of standards, including the OCS, Recycled Content Standard (RCS) and Global RecycleStandard (GRS). By having a common set of requirements across these standards, we are contributing tothe consistency and efficiency of the certification process. Once a company has been certified to the CCSrequirements for one standard, this means that they meet the same chain of custody requirements forother standards based on the CCS.
