2 FEBRUARY 2023
Every year the standards of the RHP quality mark for raw materials and growing media are updated. This is partly done based on developments in the field. Changes to the content of the RHP product certification scheme are introduced annually. As of 1 May the new requirements apply. What are the changes this year?
The most important decisions of the Central Board of Experts are explained below. Certified companies need to have introduced all the current requirements from the RHP product certification scheme in their business operations and quality management system before 1 May.
