RTRS CoC – Round Table on Responsible Soy | Chain of Custody 

RTRS CoC (Chain of Custody) is the standard that guarantees the traceability of responsibly certified soybeans and corn from origin to final product. It was developed by RTRS to ensure that each actor in the chain – growers, harvesters, processors, traders – correctly handles certified material under defined control models.

    About the standard

    The scheme contemplates models such as Segregation and Mass Balance, and can include the module aligned to the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). It adapts to all types of organizations, integrating environmental, social and legal criteria. It is a key tool for operating responsibly and transparently in demanding markets.

    Benefits

    By implementing this scheme, companies assure their customers that the soybeans integrated in their products have a controlled origin and comply with RTRS sustainability principles. External audits validate each step of the chain, strengthening the brand’s reputation.

    Version 3.0, with its optional EUDR module, facilitates compliance with European legislation on deforestation-free products. This enables companies to export to regulated markets, protecting against growing commercial and legal risks.

    Adhering to a robust CoC system encourages internal improvements in logistics, warehousing and product handling. In addition, it allows companies to position themselves as leaders in corporate responsibility, accessing premium segments and obtaining added value through sustainability.

    Control Union has extensive experience in RTRS schemes, a specialized technical team and international coverage, which allows us to accompany each stage of the certification process with strength and efficiency.
