EUDR for business
The European Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is a ground-breaking law designed to fight deforestation. It aims to make sure that forests are not damaged by the companies that use them to source commodities like wood, coffee, cocoa and palm oil.

With decades of expertise in responsible sourcing, supply chain assurance and sustainability standards, Soil Association Certification can help organisations understand their obligations, strengthen due diligence systems, and prepare for EUDR compliance.
We can help your business comply through training and gap analysis.
The EUDR covers seven key commodities: coffee, cocoa, natural rubber, palm oil, soya, cattle and beef, and timber.
Gap analysis
Our Responsible Sourcing team can help your business achieve EUDR alignment with independent, comprehensive verification and gap assessments of your due diligence systems, tailored to your needs.
Useful at all stages of readiness
Start with a baseline assessment, or work with us if you have identified and mitigated risks and are seeking third party verification of your systems.
EUDR verification and gap assessments are applicable to companies:
inside the EU with direct legal obligations as Operators/Traders
outside the EU who are seeking to align their supply chains with EUDR
producing or trading any of the EUDR commodities
seeking supplier audits as part of their due diligence
Following the assessment, you will receive a detailed report and an executive summary.
